1. A hydraulic rescue tool, having pivot able parts and a hydraulic valve system having a double-action hydraulic cylinder connected thereto for driving the pivotable parts, wherein the hydraulic valve system comprises: a feed of hydraulic pressure medium;a discharge of hydraulic pressure medium;a first pressure conduit connected to a first chamber of the hydraulic cylinder and provided with a first pressure-controlled non-return valve;a second pressure conduit connected to the second chamber of the hydraulic cylinder and provided with a second pressure-controlled non-return valve;a switch for switching between a connection of the first and second pressure conduit to respectively the feed and the discharge and a connection of the first and second pressure conduit to respectively the discharge and feed; wherein first and second pressure-controlled non-return valves block a plunger of the double-action cylinder when hydraulic pressure is lost,wherein the first and second pressure-controlled non-return valves combined with a differential valve element provide an increased speed of an outward plunger stroke of the double-action cylinder in a first position and provides a normal speed thereof in a second position,and wherein the differential valve element comprises a two-position three-way valve;a third non-return valve arranged in a pressure conduit between the switch and the pressure-controlled non-return valve connected to the second chamber, the third non-return valve blocking flow of fluid from the second chamber to the switch; anda fourth non-return valve arranged in a pressure conduit between the feed and the differential valve element, the fourth non-return valve blocking flow of fluid from the feed to the differential valve element. 2. The hydraulic rescue tool of claim 1, wherein the differential valve element is automatically switched on by pressure. 3. The hydraulic rescue tool of claim 1, wherein a pressure-controlled non-return valve comprises a spring urging the valve to a closed position under a predetermined spring tension and a driver urging the valve to an open position subject to a preset pressure. 4. The hydraulic rescue tool of claim 3, wherein the driver comprises: a connecting line between a pressure conduit and a non-return valve in another pressure conduit; andan operating element which is adapted to open the non-return valve in the other pressure conduit subject to the pressure in the pressure conduit. 5. The hydraulic rescue tool of claim 1, further comprising an actuator with which the differential valve element can be actuated, the actuator comprising: a control pressure conduit connected to the feed; andan actuating element which is connected to the control pressure conduit and with which the differential valve element can be placed in the first or second position subject to the pressure in the feed, and thereby increasing the speed of the outward plunger stroke only in the case of substantially non-loaded use. 6. The hydraulic rescue tool of claim 5, wherein the actuating element comprises a control cylinder. 7. The hydraulic rescue tool of claim 1, wherein the tool is a hydraulic spreader, the pivotable parts of which are formed by spreading arms. 8. The hydraulic rescue tool of claim 1, wherein the differential valve element is integrated with the switch. 9. The hydraulic rescue tool of claim 1, further comprising: a feed of hydraulic pressure medium;a discharge of hydraulic pressure medium;a first pressure conduit connected to a first chamber of the hydraulic cylinder and provided with a first pressure-controlled non-return valve;a second pressure conduit connected to the second chamber of the hydraulic cylinder and provided with a second pressure-controlled non-return valve; anda switch capable of switching between a connection of the first and second pressure conduit to respectively the feed and the discharge and a connection of the first and second pressure conduit to respectively the discharge and feed. 10. The hydraulic rescue tool of claim 9, wherein the switch comprises a three-position four-way valve, wherein the four-way valve is adapted to provide, in a neutral position, an open connection of the pressure conduits to the feed and discharge, to provide in a second position a connection of the first and second pressure conduit to respectively the feed and the discharge, and to provide in a third position a connection of the first and second pressure conduit to respectively the discharge and feed. 11. The hydraulic rescue tool of claim 10, wherein the four-way valve comprises a spring urging the three-position four-way valve into the neutral position under spring tension.
