Abstract
A tool (10) for insertion or removal of generally elongated fuses (32), which has a body portion (12) for capture of the fuse (32) about its circumference, including a base (14), a foot (16), a side member (18) and a top (20). The tool (10) may have axle stubs (17) that are rotatively engageable in apertures (54) defined by fuse holder pan well (52). The tool (10) also has a tab (b 22) attached to the body (12) for rocking the fuse (32) about a fulcrum axis defined by contact of the foot (16) with the floor (36) of a fuse holder pan or by rotation of axle stubs (17) within apertures (54) defined by the sidewalls (56). The tool (10) may have a positioning rib (24) attached to the body (12) for limiting axial movement of the fuse (32) relative to the tool (10). The top ( 20) may serve as a cover for a fuse holder pan (34).
