Description: |
The pivot point for the hook jaw can be shifted so the wrench can be adjusted to fit a range of sizes. The hinge pin with a side slot for a small retaining pin can be pulled aside, and the shank of the hook jaw has a series of holes. The hook jaw is pushed toward the fixed jaw by a leaf spring.
This patent and Lind's July 24, 1906 patent (no. 826,728) were used for the LIND UNIVERSAL WRENCH, produced at Providence, R.I. |
