The lifting apparatus can be removably coupled to the load distributing apparatus and move the load distributing apparatus from a first position to a second position. The lifting apparatus can include a base portion, a hydraulic cylinder having a first end and a second end, and a lifting frame. The first end of the hydraulic cylinder is pivotably connected to the base portion and the second end of the hydraulic cylinder is pivotably connected to the lifting frame.
