A screw-driving machine support for a plate-lifting tool comprises a telescopic mast comprising a fixed segment and a first telescopic segment mounted so as to slide inside the fixed segment and a lifting mechanism using a gear or winch for the first sliding segment relative to the fixed segment. The lifting mechanism comprises a driving shaft with a rotation axis and a reversible fastening means with a shaft for screwing and unscrewing a screw-driving machine, which comprises, in the position of use a member for fastening to the mast, a lateral stop which is vertical, parallel and laterally offset to the axis of rotation of the driving shaft by a given center distance and is designed to lock a screw-driving machine handle laterally in the position of use and a member for adjusting the position of the vertical stop (420) relative to the axis of rotation of the driving shaft.
