A mechanism which constrains the spatial location of a working or a focal point of a tool (), has a manipulator () and a remote center mechanism () mounted thereon. The manipulator () provides at least one degree of freedom for positioning the remote center mechanism () which itself provides at least a further degree of freedom for positioning a tool holder suitable for holding the tool () which is to be constrained in operation with respect to a remote center point. The orientation of the tool holder is adjustable while still maintaining the position of the remote center point fixed with respect to the manipulator ().
