The wrench of the present invention has a tightening means having plural curved members pivoted with each other, a lever, and a clamping member. An end of the tightening means is pivotally connected to a lever while the other end thereof is pivotally connected to the clamping member. The clamping means is removably engaged with the lever by means of plural notches to one of which a pin is engaged."
