Description: |
A spring-pressed bolt holds the rotating head for the selected function. The functions noted in the specifications include saw-set, wire-twister, tack claw, and multiple wrench sizes.
One side plate is intended to be removable, to allow for a set of interchangeable heads to increase the number of functions.
A known example is prominently marked PAT JULY 27, 19O4 which does not correspond with either the patent or application date. It does not have provision for interchangeable heads, but shows the wire twister and narrow slot shown in the patent drawing. |
