Default Wedging clutch plate levers before clutch removal

I believe I saw a page from a service manual for a 1948 ford (59AB engine) saying to insert wooden wedges into the pressure plate levers to compress the clutch springs before removing the bolts in order to change the clutch disc.
Is this necessary? If so, how do you pry the 3 clutch plate levers down so you can insert wedges?
