ABSTRACT:
A forklift is supported for movement by a pair of elongated wheeled members. The wheeled members are shiftable towards and away from one another to permit the handling of different types of loads. Each of the wheeled members has a rear wheel in the form of a caster as well as two front wheels. The front wheels of a wheeled member can be lowered and raised in such a manner that one of the front wheels is lifted from the ground as the other front wheel is moved down into contact with the ground. A first front wheel of each wheeled member is arranged to roll forwards and backwards while the second front wheel rolls sideways. During the transportation of loads from one location to another, the first front wheels are in contact with the ground. When the wheeled members are to be moved towards or away from one another, the second front wheels are brought into contact with the ground.
