Patent number: 12594659Abstract: A control assembly, a tool and a method. The assembly may include a handle assembly including a first handle portion and a second handle portion, the handle assembly being removably connectable to a tool housing; and pump controls operable to control a pump to drive a tool drive mechanism and thereby an output member. Operation of the pump may require an operator's first hand on a first handle portion and the operator's second hand on a second handle portion. The pump may be operable under the control of the pump controls to drive the drive mechanism when the handle assembly is connected to the housing and when the handle assembly is disconnected from the housing.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2022Date of Patent: April 7, 2026Assignee: Enerpac Tool Group Corp.Inventors: Barry Fallon, Tom Foley, Tyler Jeffrey Johnson, Niklas Linn Olson, Luke Wesley Waddingham, Joe Vernam, Samantha Ann Teumer
