Without the manufacturer's prior approval it is an OSHA violation.
As Normady pointed out, some products like "lift-n-tow" from star manufacturing, work OK. We have one but it has no bolt to tighten onto the blades to keep it from moving toward the truck, just a chain so it won't slide off the end.
Often, a heavy "roundsling" chocker'd around both blades together can give good vertical lift safely.
Is that an OSHA approved method?
They say no.

Fact of the week
The word "okay" (or its abbreviation "OK") originated as a humorous misspelling. In the 1830s, a fad in Boston involved using abbreviations of intentionally misspelled phrases. "OK" stood for "oll korrect," a playful mispronunciation of "all correct".
