Instructions / Assembly
Congratulations on your purchase of the Sunforce Products Wind Turbine Tower Kit, Designed specifically for your
Sunforce Products Wind Turbine. This guy-wire supported tower utilizes lightweight tubing while providing safety and
strength. Two people can easily erect this tower in about an hour. Because the wind generator and tower are
lightweight, no winches or vehicles are required for installation.
The tower includes a simple yet effective tower base and anchoring system, which eliminates the need for a concrete
base-pad. Depending on your soil conditions, cement may be necessary for proper anchoring. It is important to read
this manual first and understand your soil conditions before you begin construction.
Read this manual thoroughly before beginning assembly. Sunforce Products Inc. assumes no responsibility for
inaccuracies or omissions. The user of this information and product assumes full responsibility and risk. All
specifications are subject to change without notice. If you have any questions on siting, proper installation or
operation, please contact Sunforce Products Inc., or your dealer before installation.
Important Safety Instructions
Read these instructions in their entirety before installing your tower.
1) This manual contains important instructions that must be followed during installation and maintenance.
2) Read, understand and respect all warnings.
3) Obtain all required permits and engineering certifications for your tower and tower location.
4) Soil and wind conditions vary. Towers and tower foundations must be designed for your specific location.
5) Locate tower so as not to fall on occupied buildings, neighbors’ property or power lines.
6) Do not attempt to climb the tower. Tower climbing is very dangerous.
7) Locate the tower mounting mast well away from occupied buildings and power lines. A minimum of 300 ft (100 m)
is recommended.
8) If the wind generator sounds or appears loose, or if the tower is making an unusual sound, correct the condition
immediately. A loose wind generator or component will incur further damage and/or may fall from the tower.
9) Never stand in line with operating blades.
10) High voltage systems represent a dangerous shock hazard. All high voltage systems should be wired and
maintained by a qualified and licensed electrician.
11) Use protective gloves when handling guy wires.
12) Use protective gloves and safety glasses when working around batteries.
Safe Installation
It is very important to remember that any wind generator has high speed spinning parts and can be very dangerous!
Be sure that all bolted connections are tight and guy wire anchors are suitable for your soil conditions.
1) Two people must be present when the tower is raised. Have at least two people available during assembly and
erection of tower.
2) Always wear closed-toe shoes.
3) Always wear safety glasses.
4) Always wear protective gloves when handling cable.
5) Choose a calm day to install your tower.
