Like most things, there are several variations on the hooklift theme - for
example, the "Light Duty Hoist" at this URL does not have a boom locking
mechanism; the skip length is small enough to allow both tipping and loading to
be achieved by varying only the length of the telescoping boom:

This is one of the reasons for having the telescoping boom, which will reduce
the load moment of a skip being loaded when telescoped so that the boom length
is reduced. Perhaps the driver is just not using this facility, the skip is
overloaded, or perhaps the truck in question doesn't have it? Certainly the real
truck the model was based on was loading skips full of stone and didn't lift off
the ground :-)
