A pneumatically operable gaiter fitting device 1 includes a pneumatic actuator 28 operable, in use, between a first position and a second position. A feature permits a pneumatic fluid driving the actuator to escape when the actuator passes a predetermined position between the first and second positions. This limits the pressure of pneumatic fluid driving the actuator. The actuator may be a piston 28 disposed within a cylinder 6. The feature may be at least one port or channel 7 formed in the cylinder to allow the pneumatic fluid to escape. The device may include a resilient arrangement to resist movement of the actuator towards the second position. The resilient arrangement may include a stop and a resilient member such as an O-ring (40, Figure 6). Pivotally mounted arms 26 may be used to receive and spread the gaiter (or boot or bellows). The gaiter may be fitted to constant velocity joints in vehicles and joints between axles and drive shafts.
