ABSTRACT:
A lifting implement for removing a panel (10) which has a receiving means (18) in the body of the said panel (10) on the surface of the panel (10) which is exposed in use, the receiving means (18) being offset from the center of the panel (10), from a position in which it is held by gravity in an aperture (12) defined by a surrounding floor or ground surface (14) where the exposed surface of the panel (10) is substantially flush with the surrounding surface (14) comprises a handle (41) with an elongate shift (43) for use by an operator in a standing position, terminating in an engagement member (42) engageable with said receiving means (18), wherein the handle (41) is connected to the engagement member (42) by pivotable means (50), whereby said panel (10) can be removed from said aperture (12), and said handle (41) can move relative to said engagement member (42) during the removal of the panel (10) from the aperture (12), the lifting implement being further provided with restricting means (60) which is movable between a position in which movement of the pivotable means (50) is prevented and a position in which movement of the pivotable means is permitted. A panel system employs these panels in combination with the above-described implement.
