Description: |
| The tool includes interchangeable sockets with internal springs to hold the nuts tight against the bolt, a spur on the lever handle to hold the bolt firmly while the nut is tightened or removed, reversible gearing so normal crank rotation will either tighten or loosen a nut, and a clipper to trim excess from a bolt after the nut is tightened.
As noted in the Dec. 1902 MODERN MACHINERY, Marion Tool moved to a new plant at Upper Sandusky, OH. By 1903, the National Steam Pump Co. of Upper Sandusky, OH was the manufacturer. In 1921, the House Cold Tire Setter Co. of St. Louis, MO purchased the Reynolds Tire Bolter from National Steam Pump Co.
The example shown in picture No. 3 has a complete set of sockets, and was displayed with a light buggy wheel to demonstrate how it was used. |
