ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for use in conjunction with material handling equipment having a pivotable working member, and comprising cooperatively lever acting extension members attached to opposite sides of the pivotable working member of the material handling equipment is disclosed. One extension member is flexible, and the other is rigid. The rigid extension member is attached to the equipment working member through a hinge mechanism. The hinging of the rigid extension member, in combination with the flexibility of the other extension member, protects the material handling equipment from damage by large mechanical impulses to which the extension apparatus may be subjected in use. An extension apparatus working member is attached to the rigid extension member. In one embodiment, the extension apparatus working member includes a wrecking member, such as a wrecking ball. In other embodiments, the extension apparatus working member may be a hook, tongs, a magnet, a splitting wedge, or the like.
