ABSTRACT

A tool for assisting in manually raising a heavy elongate article off a firm
surface, comprises a handle having a pair of co-acting part-cyclindrical jaw
members disposed at one end for gripping the article to be raised. A fulcrum
member projects from one of the jaws on which the tool can be pivoted to raise
the article off the surface. During the raising process the jaws are held
together by a second handle pivoted to the first in a scissors-like manner, or
by a pair of pivoted locking arms.
