Abstract: A tool for installing threaded parts with lock nuts onto a machine is disclosed. The tool includes an outer tube and an inner mechanism that rotate together or independently using cogs. When the outer tube and inner mechanism rotate together, the threaded part is tightened onto a machine. When the outer tube and inner mechanism rotated independently, the lock nut is tightened onto the threaded part.

Abstract: An coupling mechanism includes a cross member, left and right side members projecting from the cross member, and a pair of attaching members which are removably attached to the side members. Each attaching member has an elongated body, a first hook fixed to a first end of the body, and a second hook fixed to a second end of the body. The first hook has at least one dimensional feature which is smaller than a corresponding dimensional feature of the second hook. Each attaching member is mountable in a corresponding one of the side members in a first orientation with the first hook in an operative position and is mountable in a second orientation with the second hook in an operative position. A longer portion of each attaching member projects from a lower end of the corresponding side member when the attaching member is mounted in the first orientation.

Abstract: A coupling mechanism for a work vehicle includes a coupler frame for mounting to the work vehicle and a pair of dual hook members mountable on the frame. Each dual hook member has a body with first and second hooks projecting from opposite ends the body. The ends of the body define a body plane extending therebetween. The first and second hooks project on the same side of the body plane. Each hook forms a coupling recess, and each of the recesses opens away from the body plane. The first hook is smaller than the second hook. The dual hook member is mountable in a first orientation wherein the first hook is in an operative position and is mountable in a second orientation wherein the second hook is in an operative position.
