CAUTION
• An optional spreader handle is available. SPX recommends the use of this handle to minimize the
possibility of operators’ fingers being caught within a joint during the extend or retract process.
• Never hammer or force spreader to create or access a gap.
• Don’t operate the equipment without lubricating the internal interface between the wedge and the shoes.
WEDGE USE
• It is recommended that two spreaders be used in tandem position. (See fig.1)
• This will give an even spread to the joint.
• Two hydraulic spreaders can easy be used simultaneously when used in combination with an SPX hand
pump, split-flow manifold and hydraulic hoses.
