A manipulator for manipulating metal ingots comprises a wheeled carriage (3, 103) with a peel assembly (1, 101) supported on it so that the peel assembly can move relative to the carriage. The peel assembly is supported adjacent one end of the carriage by at least one piston-cylinder device (53, 152) and a plurality of elongate links (66, 69, 169, 170) are pivotally coupled to the peel assembly and to a rigid support means (65, 165, 166, 167) on the carriage away from the end. |
