ABSTRACT:
A tool for feeding telephone or other cable into a manhole comprises a pair of horizontally spaced wire rope lengths 121 grouped together to form part of a longitudinally elongated support frame resiliently warpable in the vertical plane into arcuate shapes. Coupled with and at opposite sides of such lengths are cable receiving and cable discharging sleeve units 30 and 31. Also coupled with such lengths between such units are a plurality of collar units 35 spaced from each other and units 30, 31. The units 30, 31, 35 form part of said frame and, when closed, extend around respective longitudinal passages for movement of a cable through the tool. All those units are selectively openable to permit sidewise insertion and removal of the cable from such passages. The unit 31 is further adapted to act as a lubricator for the cable.
