ABSTRACT:
A power-driven tool for cleaning insulation and corrosion from conductors is portable and applies a controlled pressure established by hand. The tool employs a motor-driven abrasive drum and a pressure pad movable toward and away from the abrasive drum, with the conductor being squeezed between the pad and the drum during operation. A control for the motor is activated by the motion of the pressure pad toward the drum beyond a preestablished point, and an adjustable stop estalishes a minimum spacing between the pressure pad and the abrasive drum. A shroud covers the drum at all points except for an exposed area between the drum and the pressure pad, and a bias spring urges the pressure pad away from the drum to stop the motor upon release by the operator.
