Installation of TS45/60/80 Electric Winch
Since the TS45/60/80 is so tall, the lift winch is an electric winch to raise and lower the mast for
light tower operation. It is mounted in the place of the mechanical winch and is shown in Figure
3-8. The switch for this electric winch is mounted inside the genset enclosure. Although this is
standard for the TS45/60/80 kit, an electric winch kit PLEW12 can be added as a Lift or Tilt winch
on any of the light tower kits.
