Do you do the same "virtually transposing the robot to a flat floor" as with R22 to determine if the hook extends greater than 15"?
A. Extensions outside the FRAME PERIMETER are measured in the same plane as the FRAME PERIMETER. As the FRAME PERIMETER is re-oriented (e.g. when a ROBOT drives up the BATTER), the plane of measurement is similarly re-oriented.
