Abstract
An extractor device in the form of an attachment that is adapted to be slidably and pivotally supported by one of the two forks of a fork lift truck at an angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the truck so as to permit the latter to approach a rack at an angle, have the extractor device engage the underside of the rack, and permit the fork lift truck to apply a substantially straight-line horizontal pulling force on the rack as the fork lift truck moves in a rearward direction along a curved path.
