The purchase of a hy- draulic spreader and a hy- draulic cutter hinges on a decision by members of the Castlegar-Robson Royal Can- adian Legion Branch 170 on whether to provide funding, * Turner said, The cost of the spreader, cutter, and hy- draulié pumps, is about $10,000, headed, But Legion tb Rescuo tools demonstrated ives serious look | who were given the oppor- tunity to examine the tools in action during a demonstra- tion at the ambulance centre Sept. 5 were enthusiastic about their value to the ambulance service. Dorothy MacPherson and Ed Zorn, representatives of the Branch 170 bingo com- mittee — which would pro- vide the funding — were the only members present. Mac- Pherson said Friday she was disappointed that more mem- bers did not attend. The equipment, manu- factured by Lucas Rescue Safety rep from Seattle, and Chris. Mackay, from Howard Distributors of Vancouver, which sells the equipment in Canada. Mackay spoke to a small crowd of.ambulanco drivers, reporters and curious spec- tators on the specifications of the tools, and then proceeded. to put ona display that was termed “amazing and fan- tastic” by Macpherson and a number of other bystanders. The hydraulic spreader has interchangeable heads, and can be used to spread or pull obstructions away froma victim, Mackay said. The was by John Lapsansky, a Lucas g and closing force , five tons, and the tool itself weighs about 50 pounds, he added. The cutter has a cutting pressure of approximately 12 tons, according to a data sheet provided by Mackay. Both tools can be connected to a hydraulic pump simu- y taneously to avoid time in alternating the tools for different situations, he ex- _ plained. A hand’ operated © pump weighing about 12 pounds is also included in the kit, but can only accommo- date one tool at a time. Using the jaws, Mackay, pried away the driver's door ‘ofan Old ite Cutiass that at the tips is Castlegar District United Way _ Division chairmen “JOHN HOLDEN School District No. 9 MALCOLM'SCOTT Castlegar District Businesses ve ANDY PETERS - Professional People had been provided -for the’ showing. In a matter of minutes, the door was pried from the cay frame, and then the cutter was used to com- pletely remove it from the car, ‘ The spreading tips were removed, and new heads to accommodate a chain pull de- vice were inserted. The chain was wrapped around the steering column, and braced under the front of the chasis. The jaws were then closed, bending the steering column directly upward, ‘freeing the impginary driver pinned un- derneath, a The cutter was then used to shear the struts that join the roof to the car body, and Mackay and Lapsansky proceeded to peel back the © roof, providing easy access from above. The cutter cut through the entire steering. column and a brake pedal of solid steel in several seconds. Q Lapsansky said during the demonstration that re- moval of the doors, roof and cutting: of a third door in two-door models, allowed at- tendents to slide a board _under the victim, thereby reducing the possibility of, permanent damage to ‘the victim.
