When using stepped blocks ensure a hold of 15 mm
minimum is obtained prior to spreading.
6.0 WEDGE USED IN TANDEM.
It is recommended that two wedge be used in tandem
This will give an even spread to the joint. The wedge
should be set at 180˚ apart (see fig. 1).
Two hydraulic wedge spreaders can easy be used
simultaneously when used in combination with
Enerpac hand pump, a split-flow manifold and
hydraulic hose (see fig. 7).
