A taper tool (100), includes a spool mounting assembly (190) having a guard rod (198) that swings out and away from a tape spool (196) for facilitating replenishment of the tape. When the guard rod (198) is in the closed position, it is secured by a detent (210) located on the tape spool spindle (194). The spool mounting assembly (190) includes a base (192), a tape spool (196), a spindle (194), a guard rod (198) and an end protector (204) having rounded, grippable exterior edges. |
