Abstract
A fork attachment for a fork lift truck of the type having a vertically movable carriage. The fork assembly includes a pair of frames for being attached side-by-side to the carriage. Each frame includes a pair of side frame members having substantially U-shaped tops. An elongated shaft is adapted to extend between the side frame members of each frame and to rest in the U-shaped tops thereof. A plurality of spaced-apart fork members are slidably attached to each shaft. Outwardly extending pegs on each fork member coact with slots in an elongated bar extending the length of each shaft to control the spacing of the fork members relative to each other.
