Abstract: This invention is a new and improved method and attachment for fork lift trucks, providing for greater maneuverability wherein the forks of a fork lift truck are angulated with respect to the direction of travel of the fork lift truck; and wherein the apparatus is distinguished by an attachment which replaces the forks of the fork lift truck on the fork carrier which attachment provides an independent fork carrier as a part thereof and wherein the independent fork carrier is angularly movable with respect to the original fork carrier by use of remote control. Included is the use of a double action cylinder and also a carrier for rolls of carpet.
