Abstract
An apparatus and a method for holding, rotating and positioning a jack for the purpose of attaching said jack to one side of a structural support. The apparatus comprises a base and a holder. The base has a device to mount the base on the structural support. The holder is pivotally connected at one end to the base for displacement between a first location above said structural support and a second location at said one side. The holder has a receiver operable in a closed position to retain the jack as the holder is pivoted between said locations in order to position the jack for attachment to said one side of the structural support. The receiver is actuatable to an open position for removal of the holder from the jack after said attachment. The holder is displaceable from said second location back to said first location for removal of the apparatus from the support.
