OPERATION 245
Closing the Hood
To close the hood, stand with feet well apart, place hands along the front edge of the hood.
Bend the knees and let the leg muscles do the work when lifting.
Raise the hood up to the halfway point. Carefully guide the hood down with enough speed
that the hood latches lock the hood in place when it comes to its normal resting position.
