ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a wire puller, which pulls line through conduit, by employing the motor force of a standard right-angle power drill, and an operator to keep the line frictionally coupled to a spool on the wire puller. The apparatus consists of a stand and a frame, onto which is mounted a drive shaft, one end of which is sized to receive the jaws of a standard right-angle power drill. A drill restraining mechanism, also mounted onto the frame, allows the power drill to be positioned, such that actuating the drill turns the drive shaft, without requiring the wire puller operator to hold the drill, and without requiring the wire puller operator to continually depress the drill trigger switch.
