The handle is pivotal from a wholly contained, stored position within the extension member to various angular positions relative to the longitudinal axis of the extension member to accommodate the strength of the particular user. The tool is particularly useful for the elderly and physically handicapped, and it can be folded for storage in the glove compartment or under the front seat of the vehicle.
