Abstract
A hose clamp tool has juxtaposed jaws on one end of elongated members, one of which slides within the other to move the jaws toward each other to force the lugs of a hose clamp toward each other. That expands the circular part of the clamp, allowing it to fit over the end of a hose. Longitudinal movement of one elongated member relative to the other is accomplished by a handle pivotally mounted on one of the members extending toward the jaws. One end of a link is pivotally connected to an intermediate part of the handle, and the other end of the link is pivotally connected to the other member.
