The ramp lock in the M113 is behind the driver and the hydrolic control
for the ramp is by the right side of the driver. You can lower the ramp
without the engine running but you need the engine to raise the ramp.

There is a hatch in the ramp that you can get in and out of without
lowering
the ramp. It is strickly one person out at a time but is manually
controled.
You have to duck somewhat but it is not difficult to use.

Warning DO NOT LOWER ramp while hatch is open "right out of the
manual".
