| 2,360 lb (6.5 HP) | force_lb <= 2360 | Jobs that clear 1,920 but stay within 2,360 | Still short of 4,440 lb targets |
| 4,440 lb (7 HP) | force_lb <= 4440 | Heaviest portable class on this ladder | Largest class here; verify live ratings |
| NO_MATCH (above ladder) | force_lb > 4440 | Force beyond this site ceiling | Do not force 4,440 lb - size up outside this screen |
