I watched a couple of "stooges" try to cart away our 3745 when it went
off lease. We *told* the company that we did not have a loading dock
and that they would need to bring a lift-gate truck. They showed up
with a 16' truck with the built-in aluminum ramp (like a U-Haul).
To their credit, they managed to get it half-way up, but then the
ramp began to torque, probably about 15 degrees each way. It was
almost an undampened oscillation, but at the last second, they
steadied the load and eased it back down. Someone else showed up
the next day with a lift-gate. :-)
