pivotally interconnected portions of the jaws 76 78 presses against the bottom surface 61 of the drive plate 24 adjacent the throat 39 the bottom surface 61 thus acts as a spacer in opposition to the spacer surface 42 and spacer bumps 44 the margin 92 of the handle 72 also presses against the spacer surface 42 counterbalancing the forces of the margins 90 against the spacer bumps 44 and keeping the handle 72 parallel with the principal plane 37 of the drive plate 24 and with the bottom handle 74 pressure on the handle 74 thus squeezes the base 82 of the jaw 78 against the bottom surface 61 while pressure against the upper handle 72 presses its margins 90 92 against the spacer bumps 44 and spacer surface 42 so that a firm grip squeezing the handles 72 and 74 together holds the drive plate 24 firmly between the handles 72 and 74 to provide a solid interconnection of the multipurpose tool 70 to the adaptor 20 with the handles 72 and 74 so located the inner surface 60 of the fork arm 34 rests snugly alongside the pivotally interconnected portions of the jaws 76 and 78 while the inner surfaces 62 and 66 of the fork arm 32 rest snugly along the pivotally interconnected portions of the jaws 76 and 78 on the opposite side of the multipurpose tool 70 referring now also to fig1 the tool bit engaging member 22 has a body that is generally cylindrical in shape and includes a base portion 100 having a top leg 102 and a bottom.
