    The Cross Ram Support Set consists of two supports - a small and large model - that are used to evenly distribute the force of a ram and prevent it from pushing through vehicle structures during extrication. The supports have teeth to grip interior surfaces and a central bar to place the ram head. They are compatible with Holmatro rams and can be used to push back deformed dashboards, roofs, B-pillars, and side walls to create space during rescues.

    How does it work?


    • Cross ramming is a technique to create space when parts
    of the vehicle are deformed and obstruct a safe patient
    extrication. With the help of a ram the car construction is
    pushed back into its original shape.

    • The set of two supports helps you to distribute the force


    of the ram over a larger area and prevents it from pushing
    through the car construction.

    • The Cross Ram Supports have a push-off bar in the centre on which
    the ram head can be placed.

    Features & Benefits


    4
    Cross Ram Support Set – Features/Benefits

    Even distribution of the ram force

    • Designed for even distribution of the ram force

     The Cross Ram Supports spread the load on the material surface, caused by the ram,
    over a larger area

     This prevents the ram from pushing through car (interior) parts, such as door cards, seat
    fabric, roof panels and B-pillars

    5
    Cross Ram Support Set – Features/Benefits

    Maximum grip on car interior surfaces

    • Grip teeth on both sides of the Cross Ram Supports

     To provide maximum grip on car interior surfaces

     To provide optimum stability and grip during cross ramming

    6
    Cross Ram Support Set - Features/Benefits

    Maximum safety

    • Clear labels with safety warnings and instructions for correct


    use of the Cross Ram Supports.

     To help you work safer and easier.

     Example: If during the operation the angle between the ram


    and the Cross Ram Support exceeds 45°, the operation
    must be interrupted immediately. Reposition to a correct
    angle – see safety label.

    7
    Cross Ram Support Set - Features/Benefits

    Optimum visibility

    • Clear zinc plated steel surface

     Durable and corrosion resistant

     Good visibility on dark dashboard surfaces and during


    rescue operations at night

    Application
    9
    Cross Ram Support Set – Features/Benefits

    Compatible with all Holmatro Rams

    • Past and present models

    • The longer ram models are preferred as they have enough stroke to push the vehicle construction
    back into its original shape.

    10
    Cross Ram Support Set - Application

    In General

    • The accessory is designed to help you push back the


    dashboard, the roof or the B-pillars, which have intruded the
    passenger cell as a result of a collision.

    • The set can be applied on cars and trucks.

    11
    Cross Ram Support Set - Application

    Warning

    • The Cross Ram Support set is intended for use in vehicles only!

     The item is not intended as a lifting device.

     A safety warning label is attached to each Cross Ram Support.

    12
    Cross Ram Support Set – Application – Dashboard Push

    Dashboard push: Cross Ram Support Installation

     The smaller support XRS01S is designed to push


    against the car’s dashboard and roof.

     The larger support XRS01L is meant to be positioned


    on the rear seat of a car.

    13
    Make sure the ram does not touch the centre console to prevent the ram from
    slipping

    14
    Cross Ram Support Set – Application – Dashboard Push

    Dashboard Push: Installation of the


    Second Ram
     Position the ram diagonally in the door aperture and open it
    so that it remains in position.

     Open the ram in the middle of the car until the force is
    around 20% of the total force required for the dash push.

     Follow the movement with the ram in the door aperture.


    The ram in the door should generate 80% of the total force
    needed.

     Keep operating the central ram and the “door opening ram”
    alternately until enough space is created to neutralize the
    patient’s entrapment.

    15
    Cross Ram Support Set – Application – Dashboard Push

    Dashboard Push: Back Seat Strength

     The back seat of a car is relatively weak. For this reason, the larger Cross Ram
    Support is used on the back seat to create as large a surface for load distribution
    as possible.

     Whether or not the back seat can handle the load depends on the correct
    distribution of that load in the door aperture (80%) and the central ram (20%).

     The higher the central ram can be positioned on the back seat, the more force will
    be directed straight to the dashboard.

    16
    Cross Ram Support Set – Application

    B-Pillar / Side Wall Push

    • The Cross Ram Support Set can also be used to push


    back the B-pillars or side wall of a deformed car or truck.

    17
    Cross Ram Support Set – Application – B-Pillar / Side Wall Push

    B-Pillar / Side Wall Push: Installation

     The B-pillars are the strongest parts of a car’s side wall and your best option if you need
    to perform a side wall push. If possible, install the ram with the Cross Ram Supports
    between and against the two B-pillars.

     If there is an obstruction between the two B-pillars, for instance a trapped person or a car
    seat, you can alternatively use the lower sill area (rocker channel) on the opposite side of
    the car.

     If that is unavailable too, the middle of a door can also be used to push back a B-pillar on
    the other side of the car. Keep following the movement of the door and make sure the
    door stays in position during the operation.

    18
    Cross Ram Support Set – Application – Roof Push

    Roof Push: Installation

     The Cross Ram Support Set can also be used to push back a car roof back to its original
    shape.

     The teeth ensure maximum grip on the fabric.
