With the end of the approach ramp on the deck, drag the approach ramp forward until
the approach ramp approaches the gutter.
4.11.1.6
Remove the two handles and locate them in the gutter end of the approach ramp.
NOTE
The gutter has cut outs along its bottom edge to allow the approach ramps to be inserted.
Sliding the approach ramps sideways locks them in position.
4.11.1.7
Lift the approach ramp and locate with the gutter in the ramp module. Place the lifting
handles on the same side at either end of the approach ramp and position the ramp to
the outside edge of bridge.
4.11.1.8
Slide the next approach ramp into the central location on the approach ramp frame
and repeat the procedure, working from the center outwards.
NOTE
The approach ramps located toward the center of the bridge may be deployed without
bringing inboard.
4.11.1.9
Once all the approach ramps have been put in place from one transport frame repeat
the procedure for the other transport frame.
4.11.1.10 Using two personnel, lift the two empty approach ramp frames, and store them on the
empty flatrack.
4.11.1.11 Position three defile marker posts on either side of the bridge to form a lead onto the
bridge for traffic. When deploying defile markers in any ground, uses a road form
spike pin inserted into the ground (use sledge hammer or pneumatic hammer) and
place the defile marker so that defile marker box section is fitted over the shaft of the
road form spike (refer to Chapter 3 Para 3.20.1 Deployment of Defile Markers).
4.11.1.12 Wrap marker tape between the posts securing it in the defile marker post slot and tie
back to the ramp module.
