I believe those are grab irons/steps to get on top of the rig. One FF secured it after he got off the top of the rig.
Hope that helps.

As a FF I must say they are in an akward spot & position to be steps. If they were/are steps, I would expect them to fold from the top down like the other steps. Instead they fold from the side & have an opening in the top. Could they be used to hang stuff on, or as fold out hand holds? Does LA still allow FF to ride the tailboard while backing apparatus? If so, it could be used as a safety harness tie down. Just my two cents, any solid info is much appreciated.
