A robotically assisted power line aerial diverter mounting tool enables a UAV to attach an aerial diverter, or other power line safety equipment, to a power line. To do this, the mounting tool has a mounting plate, a robot-attachment assembly, an intermediary connection mechanism, a mounting receptacle, an extension member, and a diverter-manipulation assembly. The robot-attachment assembly is a rigid frame that is mounted onto one side of mounted plate. The robot-attachment assembly has adjustable fasteners that enable the mounting tool to be affixed to the UAV. The connection mechanism is a detachable fastening system that is mounted onto the mounting plate, opposite to the robot-attachment assembly. The mounting receptacle extends into the connection mechanism so that the extension member can be attached to the connection mechanism. Further, one end of the extension member engages into the receptacle and the diverter manipulation assembly is mounted to the opposite end.
