Default Atlas Lathe feed screw clutch adjustment

I have a 12" Atlas Lathe with the slip clutch on the feed screw. The
slip on the clutch is adjusted by turning a round sleeve with a spanner
hole in it.

Is there a tool made to perform this adjustment? Anybody knows who
sells this tool?

To date, I've been using Vicegrip pliers to tighten the clutch, which
is taking its toll. I'd very much like to adjust the slippage by using
the proper method.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
