Description

3.1

Equipment

The spreader is one of the pieces of rescue equipment that makes it possible to reach victims. The tool

is produced as a hand tool that can be operated by one person. The tool is used during rescue

operations to spread, squeeze or pull structural elements apart. It can squeeze material tightly or

squash it and thus create weak pivots or places that are easier to cut. It can also force pieces apart. By

placing accessories on the points, materials can be pulled together.

One or more hoses connect the tool to a pump. On the front of the tool there are two spreading tips that

make a spreading movement. The high hydraulic pressure that is used means this tool can apply

enormous forces.
