ISTR that 3/8" drive ratchet extensions fit inside the Zefal HP pump
tube, so if you've got enough extensions and a flat-end screwdriver bit,
you're in business.

Dear Mark,
I don't use them often, but this $6 trio of 12 to 24 inch socket
wrench extensions from Harbor Freight has been awfully useful:
With the help of a 3/8 x 1/4 adaptor, you can combine all three into a
54-inch extension.
If no one is watching, you can also put a nail in the hollow end, hold
it in place a piece of putty, and hammer on the other end to get at
otherwise impossible carpentry problems.

That machine sounds a bit weedy from the actual description. It's
moderately hard work but you can cut 1.6mm sheet steel perfectly well
with a pair of inexpensive hand-held tin-snips.
