ABSTRACT:
A pallet puller for secure engagement with a cargo pallet whereby the pallet may be slidingly pulled as in off-loading a cargo truck. The device is formed of a single length of preferably cylindrical rod material defining a main rod member having a pulling loop or ring formed into an outer end thereof which facilitates connection to a pulling apparatus such as a forklift truck or power winch. The inner end is formed having a fist orthogonal bend leading to a first segment or portion which extends orthogonally from the first bend and the rod member, then a second bend leading to a second segment or portion which is orthogonal to both the first segment and the longitudinal axis of the rod member. This structure effects quick, positive, non-damaging engagement against an edge of one foot board of the pallet and beneath one stringer of the pallet to insure non-slipping pallet engagement.
