Rearward

movements.

Rearward

movements can be prevented by use of a rear bulkhead

or gate. The rear bulkhead or gate must be braced,

either with diagonal supports back to the doorposts of

the vehicle or by secured risers against the doorposts

and the bulkhead or gate. Backup blocks must be

driven into place and nailed to the risers and gate to

eliminate slack (fig 3-36 (A and B) and figs 3-37 and 3-

38).
