Re: Moving lift to put gear on peg easier

I agree, while FIRST may (and will likely) issue some kind of overly conservative clarification on this issue (and it is a very good question), they idea that this is somehow dangerous is a massive stretch.

I'm a huge proponent of industrial safety and appreciate FIRST having to blend in real world industrial safety standards due to the fact that we are dealing with machines.....they aren't remote controlled bulldozers or mining equipment.

Much of what we must abide by likely originates from insurance requirements, not any eminent source of harm.
