Before you start

  • The mast extends up to 31.5 ft (9.6 m). Make sure the area above the unit is open and clear of overhead wires and obstructions.
  • Do not set up the unit if high winds or storms capable of producing lightning are expected in the area.

Procedure

  1. For maximum light coverage, locate the unit at ground level or higher than the area being illuminated.
  2. Place the unit on firm ground that is relatively flat, then block the wheels to keep it from moving.
  3. Turn the tongue jack handle clockwise to raise the trailer tongue off the towing vehicle.
  4. Connect a good earthen ground to the grounding stud on the frame at the base of the mast post.
  5. Pull the locking pins on the four leveling jacks, rotate them foot-down, and reinsert pins; adjust until level.
  6. Adjust lamps by loosening the trunnion wing nuts, aim as desired, tighten hardware and ensure lamps are connected to the junction box.
