Zusammenfassung:A material hauler including a first material carrier having wheels for supporting the carrier and permitting its movement along a floor surface and a second material carrier removably supported on a material handling vehicle and positioned at a distance from the first material carrier. The material object to be hauled bridges the space between the first and second material carriers and engages both of the material carriers. Thereby, the two material carriers and the material object all travel with the material handling vehicle to haul the objects. The second material carrier can be lifted above the floor surface by the material handling vehicle and includes a lower member supported on the material handling vehicle and an upper member which is pivotal relative to the lower member. The upper member supports the material object being hauled so that the lower member and the material handling vehicle can turn at corners relative to the upper member and the material object.
