ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for pulling fence posts having fulcrum stand (B) with an action lever (A) movably connected to one end (A1) of fulcrum stand (B) by hinge (B2). A receiving box (A2f), for encompassing the object to be moved, is connected to the action lever (A). An action handle (A3) is attached to the receiving box (A2f) and the fulcrum stand (B), and a moveable gripping pawl (A2d) is connected to the action handle (A3) for engaging the object to be pulled as the action handle (A3) is raised. The movable gripping pawl (A2d) includes two edges, an engagement edge and a non-engagement edge, and a connector (A2g) to connect the gripping pawl (A2d) to the action handle (A3) so that the object to be pulled is raised by the engagement edge as the action handle (A3) is raised. Because the fulcrum stand (B) and the action handle (A3) are on opposite sides of the post (P) to be pulled, the resulting force applied to the post (P) is primarily free of damaging, rotating, curving forces which, heretofore, have resulted in the posts (P) being bent as they were pulled. Further, because the post (P) is pulled by raising action handle (A3), there is no destabilizing wobble as the device is used.
