By reversing the legs, this tool can be used as both an internal and external puller. It can be upgraded with a hydraulic spindle. The hook is forged and red-hot, and the self-supporting hooks feature a T-profile for a form-fitting connection. It has a patented quick adjustment for easy, secure setting and readjustment without tools. The tool can be used as an internal puller by repositioning the hooks. The nitrocarburized spindle surface is wear and corrosion-resistant, ensuring that the spindle remains smooth and clean without the need for grease or oil. The crosspiece can be combined with other spindle and hook designs as well as lengths from the GEDORE puller system.
