Disclosed is an improvement over a prior art mobile hydraulic conveyor apparatus which is mounted on the rear end of a truck for both vertical and lateral pivoting, as well as vertical storage for transport to different locations. The apparatus is moved vertically by a black and tackle arrangement under hydraulic control. Lateral pivoting is achieved by activation of a pair of hydraulic cylinders which act on the conveyor apparatus to shift the apparatus laterally about a pivot axis extending centrally through a turret connected to the conveyor apparatus and mounted on a turret holder which in turret is pivotally mounted on the rear end of the truck. The turret holder includes a c-ring which is mounted in a circumferential groove formed on the turret. The conveyor apparatus includes two pivotally connected trays which support a~ hydraulically driven belt which transports material dispersed from the truck to a selected location. During transport the trays may be pivoted upwardly in a folded position by providing hydraulic power to the block and tackle arrangement.
