Abstract

A lift has two tines that project forward and are movable up-and-down to raise and lower pallets and skids. Two outriggers are pivotal between a stored position and a deployed position, and the outriggers project forward in the deployed position to stabilize the lift when the tines are elevated. The lift combines the capabilities of pallet trucks, skid lifts and stackers in a highly maneuverable configuration
