Abstract: The present invention provides a hand held tool comprising an elongate handle portion having a first end and a second end, terminating at its first end in a bifurcated wedge portion terminating in a pair of spaced apart tines for engagement with the sprinkler nozzle, said tines being essentially orthogonal to the axis of the shaft of the handle portion. When the tines of the bifurcated wedge portion engage with the sprinkler nozzle, the handle can be lifted to raise the nozzle for maintenance.
