According to the invention, the second arm end (13) is selectively connectable and non-connectable, respectively, to a seat (30) mounted on the secondary spreader frame (2), the seat having an insert or connecting end facing upwards from the spreader frame, and the second arm end carrying means mating with the seat in result of a driven and remotely controlled, vertical or substantially vertical downward movement of the second arm end upon connection.
