ABSTRACT:
A manual lifting and moving apparatus comprises a rigid bar having a pair of rollers on an axle at one end and a handle at the other end. Struts pivoted to the roller axle have a boom pivotally connected to their opposite ends. One end of the boom is received in a channel mounted on the rigid bar and connectible to the channel by a pin extending through a pair of aligned holes in the sidewalls of the channel, there being multiple pairs of aligned holes to provide plural selectable attachment points. The other end of the boom has a hook which can be engaged with a loading ramp adapter or used to lift various objects. The boom can also be secured in a collapsed position along the rigid bar, allowing the apparatus to be used as a pry bar, to maneuver a skid truck or lift a material-containing drum, and also allowing attachments, such as a hand truck adapter or a pallet truck adapter to be connected to the channel and to one end of the boom.
