LIGHT TOWER SET UP 1. For maximum light coverage, locate the unit at ground level or in a spot higher than the area being illuminated by the lamps. WARNING The mast extends up to 25 ft (7.6 m). Make sure area above the unit is open and clear of overhead wires and obstructions. H DETAIL C J DETAIL D F E DETAIL G C D E B G A DETAIL H 00158 2. Place the unit on firm ground that is relatively flat, then block the wheels to keep it from moving (A). This will make it easier to level the unit. 3.
RAISING THE MAST 1. Set up and level the unit. Refer to “Light Tower Set Up” on page 14. WARNING The unit must be leveled with the outriggers extended before raising the mast. The outriggers must remain extended while the mast is up. Failure to level the unit or extend the outriggers will severely reduce stability and could allow the unit to tip and fall. DETAIL B 2. Check the mast cables for excessive wear or damage. Make sure the cables are properly centered in each pulley (A).

PRESTART CHECKLIST Before starting the unit, all items in the prestart checklist must be completed. Read and understand ALL safety sections at the beginning of this manual. Ensure all maintenance procedures are up to date. For more information, refer to “General Maintenance ” on page 23 and Basic Maintenance Schedules beginning on page 24. The unit must be level. The unit must be dry. Check for any water inside, on, or near the unit, dry if needed.
AUTOMATIC SHUTDOWN This unit is equipped with a low oil pressure and high coolant temperature automatic shutdown system. This system will automatically shut off the fuel supply to stop the engine if oil pressure drops too low or the engine exceeds normal operating temperature. Return the switch to the “OFF” position to reset the unit after you have determined the cause of the shutdown.
WET STACKING The unit is powered by a diesel engine. Diesel engines are susceptible to wet stacking if lightly loaded. Wet stacking occurs when an engine is run at less than 30% of its full load capacity, causing unburned fuel to accumulate in the exhaust system. Wet stacking can be detected by continuous black exhaust when the unit is under a constant load. It can also cause fouling of injectors and buildup on engine valves.
LOWERING THE MAST ELECTRICALLY LOWERING THE MAST 1. Shut down the lights and engine. Allow the lights to cool 10-15 minutes before lowering the mast. 2. If the trailer is going to be moved, it is recommended that the mast is turned so the lights face toward the back of the unit. To rotate the mast: A. Loosen the mast rotation knob. B. Rotate the mast until the white arrows are aligned and the metal stop tabs are touching. The winch and lights should be facing toward the back of the unit. C.
REMOVING THE LIGHTS FOR TRANSPORTATION 1. Disconnect the power cords from the junction box at the top of the mast. Replace the dust caps on the junction box. 2. Remove the lights from the mast by removing the wing nut that holds the light fixture bracket to the cross tube. Insert the lights onto the light storage channel, located on the inside of each door. Orient the lights so the lenses are facing the rubber seal on the inside of the door, as shown. Secure the light fixtures with the wing nuts.
LIFTING THE UNIT When lifting the unit, attach any slings, chains or hooks directly to the central lift point. The central lift point is located on the mast between the two forklift pockets. 1. Make sure the equipment being used to lift the unit has sufficient capacity. For approximate weights, refer to Specifications beginning on page 9. 2. Always remain aware of people and objects around the unit while moving. 3. Use the upper or lower forklift pockets with care.
• Check fuel level. Note: If the engine was run out of fuel or the fuel tank was drained, it may be necessary to bleed the fuel lines. Refer to the engine operator’s manual supplied with the unit. BASIC MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE - MITSUBISHI ENGINE Refer to the original equipment manufacturer’s operating manual for a complete list of maintenance requirements.
BASIC MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE - KUBOTA ENGINE Refer to the original equipment manufacturer’s operating manual for a complete list of maintenance requirements. Failure to comply with the procedures as described in the engine operator’s manual will nullify the warranty, decrease performance and cause equipment damage or premature equipment failure. Maintenance records may be required to complete a warranty request. Use the schedule in the following table as a guide for regular maintenance intervals.
WINCH USE, OPERATION & MAINTENANCE • • • • • • • Keep winch free of dirt, oil, grease, water and other substances. Check all mounting bolts and make sure they are tightened to the recommended torque values. Replace any damaged fasteners. Periodically check all connections to be sure they are tight and free of corrosion. Check cable for visible damage every time winch is operated. Examples of damage are: cuts, knots, mashed or frayed portions, and broken strands. Replace cable immediately if damaged.
TOP-WIND MODELS • Oil Apply a lightweight oil to the screw stem. Grease Grease Grease Oil Oil Oil Oil 00243 TRAILER WHEEL BEARINGS The trailer axles are equipped with a grease zerk fitting to allow lubrication of the wheel bearings without the need to disassemble the axle hub.
TROUBLESHOOTING THE LIGHTS DANGER THIS UNIT USES HIGH VOLTAGE CIRCUITS CAPABLE OF CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
