ABSTRACT:
An improved hand truck is provided for use on construction sites for lifting and transporting banded stacks of masonry products such as bricks and blocks. The hand truck includes a frame supported by a pair of wheels for movement along the ground and tiltable from a vertical position wherein a stack of masonry products can be engaged toward an inclined position wherein the stack can be transported. The frame supports a quickly and conveniently adjustable movable plate for use in supporting the individual units in the stack when the hand truck is in an inclined position and a pair of projecting tongs for insertion into openings in the stacks whereby the stacks can be lifted off the ground when the hand truck is tilted. The position of the tongs can also be quickly and conveniently adjusted both laterally and vertically to permit the tongs to be properly aligned with the openings in the stacks regardless of the relative spacing between the openings in the stacks and regardless of the height of the openings relative to the ground.
