Jim;
Always glad to hear from another M715 owner (I have 5 of 'em). in response to
your questions, the tool bag contained the following:

6-PIN, cotter split 3/4 lg
3-PIN, shear 9/32 x 2-3/8
1-PLIERS, slip-joint, str nose, 8 in long
1-SCREWDRIVER, cross tip str, phillips, plastic handle, no. 2 w/4" blade,
7.5" long
1-SCREWDRIVER, flat tip genrl. purpose, plastic handle, 1/4" tip, 7.75" long
1-WRENCH, adjustable open end, hvy duty, 1.125 jaw opening, 9.5 to 10.5" long
1-WRENCH, drain plug, str-bar, 1/2" square, 2.5" long, (both wrenchs phos.
finish)

These items are listed in TM9-2320-244-10, Change 1, dated September, 1973,
pages 12-15. This was the supplement to the operators manual.

The pioneer tools are the standard shovel, ax and pick-mattock, stowed on the
sides of the bed and held in place with the canvas straps. These straps are
available from most all canvas dealers. Hope this helps.
