Abstract
A power tool head is removably connectable to a power tool handle. The power tool head has an output for performing an operation on a work piece, and a housing having an inner surface defining a main cavity for receiving an interface of the power tool handle. The housing has an outer surface generally opposite the inner surface. The power tool head also has a first opening for selectively receiving a drive shaft for transferring rotation of the drive shaft to the output, the opening defining a central axis. The power tool head also has a pin extending substantially parallel to the central axis for depressing a trigger lock button, and a second opening extending from the inner surface to the outer surface in a direction generally radial with respect to the central axis for receiving a release member.
