ABSTRACT:
An apparatus used as a tool, to lock and unlock the casters of a scaffold while the user is on top of a scaffold. The apparatus is an elongated pole and adjustable sleeve with a spring-loaded push button mechanism, to change the length of the apparatus. There are a variety of specially designed heads that are used to adjust the scaffold caster levers in locked and unlocked positions. This is done in place of a user climbing up and down the scaffold and manually locking and unlocking the scaffold caster levers from the ground level. A rubber mallet head or contact bulb is provided near the handle to further adjust the scaffold casters, and a looped strap is also provided to hang the apparatus when not in use.
