[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1550101, member: 18945"] I agree. The only way I'll work under one is if there is a mechanical block on the exposed cylinder ram. A piece of channel iron will work, dropped over the exposed ram. I lower the bucket until the barrel of the cylinder contacts the lock and then I use a comealong or endless chain host to raise or lower whatever I had hung off the bucket. I've seen people use a 2x4, tied in place with a piece of rope, which I suppose is better than nothing.... My old 480 Case came with a safety lock and I use it. It's permanently pinned at the top so it will swing down on the ram if you remove a pin at the bottom. Not mine, but mine is setup just like this one. [url=https://postimages.org/][img]https://i.postimg.cc/mDt41K9m/cyl-lock.jpg[/img][/url] Case bobcats have the same setup.
