VARIABLE POSITIONING
The P-16 Rescue Tool is designed with a pivoting powerhead to provide greater access and versatility of the
attachment. The powerhead is capable of rotating 70

to the left relative to the tool body when upright. During
operation, the powerhead is held in place by a clutch located directly above the powerhead.
To pivot the head…
1. Make sure there is no load on the
spreader or cutter attachment
(i.e. slight gap between spreader
tips).
2. Loosen the clutch knob
3. Swing the Powerhead and
attachments to the desired
position.
4. Retighten the clutch knob.
WARNING
The clutch knob must be tightened prior to engaging and loading the P-16 Rescue Tool. Failure
to do so may result in sudden movement of the tool and attachments, which may cause personal
injury and/or damage to property and/or equipment.
The clutch is intended to secure the position of the attachments. It has been designed, however, so that
if the body of the tool (handles, covers, etc.) should become jammed against other objects and loaded
during operation, the clutch will slip within the 70

rotation limits to prevent tool damage, even with the
clutch knob tight. There will be times when, in order to prevent the P-16 tool body from jamming against
other objects, the tool should be used UPSIDE DOWN and the attachments repositioned. Lower handle
grips are provided on the tool for this purpose.
