A tool is adapted to simultaneously grab a fastener clip, draw the tongue of the clip in a direction away from an opposing leg to establish a clearance condition for installation and removal of the clip from the edge of a piece of sheet metal, and support the clip to prevent bending of the legs of the clip. The tool includes a pair of opposing jaws connected for movement toward and away from one another with actuating means such as associated handles. One jaw is formed with a surface to establish a fulcrum with the connected end of the tongue, and an operative end adapted to grab the free end of the tongue. The other jaw includes a cam surface for supporting the opposite end of the leg to which the tongue is connected. The jaws cooperate to effect separation of the tongue and the opposing leg of the clip to establish the clearance condition as the handles are squeezed together. |
