  • Floor-stripping tool
    Patent number: 6666522
    Abstract: A floor-stripping tool for attachment to a standard pallet truck, thereby converting the pallet truck into a self-propelled floor stripper. The chassis structure of the tool includes fork holders, and stabilizing brackets. A blade attaches to a blade holder on the front stabilizing bracket. To remove a floor surface with the tool, a user first attaches the fork holders of the floor-stripping tool to the forks of a pallet truck; anchor bolts ensure a tight fit. The brackets are adjusted as needed. The forks of the pallet truck are lowered to insert the blades of the tool under the surface to be removed. Moving the forks forward removes the floor surface.
