ABSTRACT:
A fork for a fork lift truck is attached to the typical mast mounted carriage by means of upper and lower hangers. Lateral adjustment of the position of the fork relative to the carriage involves engagement and release of a pin structure carried by the upper hanger. The upper hanger incorporates a pin which is vertically movable between a first position in which the pin engages slots in the upper mounting bar of the carriage and a second position in which the pin is recessed permitting lateral, relative movement between the fork and the carriage. A spring urges the pin to the first position where the pin engages slots in then carriage mounting bar. By lifting and turning the pin can be held in a second position so that the fork is slidable laterally along the carriage mounting bar.
