The two top ropes work very similar to the ropes on Pehter's digger. The cut is
away from the machine instead of towards, so the rope is on the top of the
crowd "linkage" instead of the bottom. It's interesting how the bucket tilt
mechanism interacts with that linkage.
There is no cable pulling the bucket towards the machine - to do that you need
to hoist the main boom higher and let gravity pull the arm in 8?)
