The Insertion Step has two purposes:
- Pressing panels into grain.
- Assisting a victim with climbing out of the grain.
In cases where high moisture or high FM grain make wall section difficult, a rescuer can use all his body weight on the step to press the panels. The step is VERY durable.
The pipe is slid through two handholds and acts as a handle for the victim, and also assists in pulling panels out of the grain when the rescue is complete.
