Abstract
An anchor installation tool has an elongated member with a body portion and a head portion. The body portion includes an internal bore to receive a drill bit. The head portion projects from and has a diameter smaller than the body portion. The head portion is coaxial with the body portion. An anchor guide has a sleeve-shaped body with a bore throughout the body. The bore has a portion sized to fit over the body portion and a portion to fit over the head portion. The guide slides on the body and head portions. A mechanism retains the anchor guide onto the body portion. The retaining mechanism enables sliding of the anchor guide and prohibits removal of the anchor guide from the body portion.
