A tool for handling a long and heavy object, in particular a wind turbine rotor blade, includes a clamping unit which can be fixed to the rotor blade. The clamping unit has a first clamp and a second clamp spaced from the first clamp with respect to a longitudinal direction of the object. A first rod unit is rotatably coupled to the first clamp of the clamping unit at a first coupling site is also and coupled to a traverse. A second rod unit is rotatably coupled to the second clamp of the clamping unit at a second coupling site and is also coupled to the traverse via by a rope. A The length of a rope section between the second rod unit and the traverse is adjustable by a winch.
