Gunsmoke Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 I'm thinking the plug-in device is some sort of warming tool, perhaps to heat up oil (for cold weather starts) by inserting in oil fill pipe, or heating up an otherwise inaccessible fitting to ease removal. Hope this doesn't "curl your hair"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a grounding plug so would probably have been made in last 40 years or so. In fact, I just bought one Wednesday at Carlisle for $10. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you don't see is the business-end should have a right-angle blade on it. No one uses these anymore. Better techniques have been developed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special pliers were required for making adjustments to these brakes, and not surprisingly the pliers came to be known as Steeldraulic pliers. [Utica 516 Steeldraulic Pliers] Fig. 138.
