Abstract: A device for coupling a propulsor to a marine vessel. A rail is configured for attachment to the marine vessel. A carriage is moveable relative to the rail into first and second positions. A shaft has a first end pivotally coupled to the marine vessel and a second end for coupling to the propulsor. An actuator is configured to pivot the shaft relative to the marine vessel to thereby move the propulsor into and between stowed and deployed positions. A lock is manually operable to fix the carriage in the first position in which the actuator prevents manual pivoting of the shaft and alternatively in the second position in which the shaft is permitted to be manually pivoted.

Abstract: A hand-held, battery-powered, hydraulically-actuated tool including a frame forming a tool longitudinal axis; a battery offset from the tool longitudinal axis; and located along the tool longitudinal axis a motor connected to the battery; a hydraulic fluid pump connected to the motor, such as by a transmission; a ram movably connected to the frame and adapted to be moved relative to the frame by hydraulic fluid pumped by the hydraulic fluid pump; and a working head adapted to be actuated by the ram. The tool includes a main section situated in an in-line configuration along the tool longitudinal axis. A center longitudinal axis of the battery is offset from the tool longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A hydraulic tool including a main section and a working head. The main section has a hydraulic drive system including a pump and a hydraulic fluid conduit system, and a first handle adapted to allow a user to grasp the main section with a first hand. The working head is connected to the main section and includes a frame, a ram movably connected to the frame, and a second handle extending from the frame. The ram is adapted to be moved on the frame by hydraulic fluid from the hydraulic drive system. The second handle is adapted to allow a user to grasp the working head with a second hand away from a compression area between the ram and an opposite anvil section of the frame.
