Zusammenfassung:	An apparatus for use in delivering tubulars to an elevated work area is described. A slideway for receiving a tubular is mounted on the leading end of an extendable carriage. The opposing end of the carriage is pivotally fixed to a frame assembly. Extension of the carriage drives the leading end towards a work area. A carriage support ramp receives the leading end of the carriage as it is extended, and guides the leading end towards the elevated work area for discharge of the tubular from the slideway.
