ABSTRACT:
A three-wheel pivot-caster assembly that provides mobility for a power tool is described. The pivot-caster assembly includes a first frame assembly with two wheels and a second frame assembly that has a caster assembly which includes a swivel wheel. The first and second frame assemblies may be adjusted to accommodate power tools of various sizes. Additionally, a "stopping" mechanism is provided to maintain the swivel caster in its set position when the power tool is lifted. A straight line action clamp mechanism with locking feature prevents accidental actuation of the swivel caster when the tool is lifted or used over an uneven surface.
