Ramp Down

First open of the Cargo Ramp.

Today we decided to bypass the hydraulics to finally open the ramp.  We placed the 5 ton chain fall and connected it to the ramp in 2 locations near the lip.

First light after a long wait.  Other than the slow operation of the chain fall all went smoothly.

Still going to leave the safety ropes up, though probably better to move back so we can move around.

Cylinders fully extended, no loss of fluid or seaping.

Not the ultimate solution, or prettiest, it works until we can get a better solution in place that's as safe.
