A handle for use in association with a fluid valve is disclosed. The handle includes a base member securely mounted to a spindle of the valve to be actuated.

The hook extension is biased out of contact with the slot by a spring means. In operation, the user must depress the drive spindle thereby inserting the hook extension into the base member slot in order to activate the valve. The handle includes means of locking the drive spindle into an actuating contact with the base member.
