A hand truck includes a frame, a toe plate connected to the frame, a pair of wheels rotatably secured to the frame, and a handle connected to the frame. A fourth-wheel attachment is pivotally connected to the frame at a first point and removable connected to the frame at a second point. A lever positioned adjacent to the handle causes the removable connection between the fourth-wheel attachment and the frame to be released, allowing the fourth-wheel assembly to pivot away from the frame. An embodiment of a hand truck includes a break back bar. The break back bar is pivotable with respect to the frame. The break back bar may be deployed and stood on by a user to prevent movement of the hand truck while pivoting a load.

Collapsible pallet picking adapter

A pallet truck adapter having side by side shoes for fitting over pallet supporting tines, in which the shoes are of different heights. This facilitates locating one pallet on the higher shoe, lifting it slightly off of the supporting surface, and then moving to and lifting another pallet on the lower shoe. The adjacent pallets can then be moved together and off loaded at different locations, unloading the pallet on the lower shoe first, and the pallet on the higher shoe thereafter.
