Ensure wedge is fully located on the step selected to spread. A solid block may be inserted into a joint and the pressure released onto the block. A fresh hold on a new step can then be chosen to open the joint further if required.	Never place fingers in a joint held by activated wedge unless a safety block is located into the joint. The handle of the wedge is there to stop operators holding spread plates as the wedge is retracted. This will stop fingers becoming jammed between plates. It is not recommended to use a hydraulic pump with a capacity of greater than 10,000 psi.

It is recommended that two wedges be used in tandem. This will give an even spread to the joint. The wedges should be set at 180° apart. (Below)
