17
Q

how do you maximize the weight restriction of the BSA

A

by adding 6, 10,000 lbs chains

18
Q

is the alternate forward barrier considered forward restraint

A

no the alternate forward barrier is intended to keep the load from rolling forward during a malfunction and is not to be considered forward restraint

19
Q

when can an alternate forward barrier be used in the place of a BSA

A

whenever the combined rigged weight does not exceed 5,000 lbs

20
Q

weight range for a 3/4in skid-board
