SPREADING (SPREADERS, COMBI DEVICES)
The spreading function’s uses include opening doors, lifting vehicles and other
movable loads, pushing vehicle parts away, and squashing tubes and beams. For this,
the vehicle must be stably stabilized and supported.
To prevent any sliding during spreading, the arms and tips are uted inside and out.
Whenever possible, the tips should be used only to enlarge a gap, because
repositioning the spreader prevents slipping.
