It hooks around the alternator and allows you to put tension on the drive belt using a half inch square drive bar while you nip up the mounting bolts.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">It saves on bending screwdrivers, bleeding knuckles (when said screwdriver slips) and damaging a very expensive Alternator. It fits into the smallest space where getting other forms of lever are not practical.</p>
