ABSTRACT:
A portable, power-driven device capable of being carried by an operator to force stiff but bendable fishing tape through an electrical conduit until engageable means on the free end of the tape project from the conduit. The free end of a length of wire is removably secured to the engageable means, with the device now being operated to retract the tape into a storage reel that forms a part thereof. As the tape is retracted, the wire is drawn through the conduit. The device is of such structure that it may exert a pull on the wire of a far greater magnitude than that possible by a single person, and as a result extremely long lengths of wire may be drawn through a conduit or other elongate confined space.
