I have read on here in the past that the US Towers are designed to be cranked 
"up" when they are in the horizontal position , but , my concern is since i 
dont 
have positive pull down , how in the world i would retract it since gravity 
wouldnt be assisting me ? i was hoping to do the rotor work etc... at ground 
level but unless i can retract it , i dont see how I can.

Thanks

Dan N8DCJ
