The PLP (LANDING PAD) is used at the bottom of a ramp or ramp run to assist mobility on soft ground.
This is purchased separately and not included in any of the configurations.

Contour the ground to remove any high or low areas which would prevent portions of the
Landing Pad from contacting the ground.
The underside of the Landing Pad must be fully supported by the ground. It should
never be used in an elevated position like a ramp or a platform.
8.1.2.
Slide the bottom plate into one of the three available slots (FIG. 8.1).
The ramp must be installed on the side marked for ramp attachment.
8.1.3.
After installing the bottom plate, install #8-32 hex washer head thread cutting screws into
the screw slots on both sides (FIG. 8.2).
