The Saddle Devil - How To Widen Saddles To
widen a saddle, place the shorter concaved ram onto the hydraulic jack.
Push down fully then tighten the valve on the jack. Rest the pommel
of the saddle onto the pad, making sure that it is square. Pump the
handle on the jack so that there is a small gap in-between the top
rollers and the under side of the saddle. Now push the protecting pads
into this gap. Look at the above image to see where the pads position
is in relation to the rollers. When satisfied everything is square
Carefully pump the handle on the jack, the pressure will increase and
widen the saddle. You can look on the other side of the machine to
see how much the saddle has widened out. When the desired width has
been reached unscrew the release valve on the jack by half or so turns.
Take out the saddle and stamp the sweat flap with the arrows pointing
outwards. |
