With two
people lift RA81 on to a hydraulic office chair set at it's
maximum height. Lower chair to correct hight. Pull rails onto RA81
and latch.
ROFL!!!.... And then I realised that you're right and it would be
next-to-ideal. Of course finding space for a chair anywhere near my PDP11
is left as an exercise for the reader :-)

When you're working 4 to midnight doing installs alone you get inventive.
The sooner it's in the rack, the sooner you go home.
I did this for 5 years and it worked great if one of those secretary type
armless chairs was around.
One thing about Field Service at DEC -- resourceful folks survive.
It's kind of like salvaging these classic computers.
Well, it's time to be off to the Trenton Computer Festival to dumpster dive.
