A release mechanism for permitting the operation of a pneumatic valve includes a ring (A) extending about a cylindrical hand held housing for manual manipulation to move a blocking member (B) from beneath a depressible valve operator (D) and is provided with resilient means (C) normally biasing the blocking member (B) towards a blocking position beneath the handle (D) but which may be moved by manual manipulation of the ring against the force of resilient means (C) which automatically returns the blocking member to blocking position after the handle is moved for actuating the pneumatic valve and the like for operating the hand held mechanism.
