2.2.5. Raise and Plumb the Mast
1.
With NW and NE cables attached to anchors, have one person lift the mast, while another person pulls on the
SOUTH cables to bring the mast to an upright position (see Figure 34). If using rope ratchets, adjust them to
allow further steps.
2.
Attach the SOUTH cables to the anchor. While one person holds onto the mast and uses the post level, the
second person can adjust each of the bottom guy cable wedge clamps—maintaining level in all directions (see
Figure 35). The rope ratchet can be used to temporarily remove the load from the wedge assembly during wedge
adjustments.
3.
Repeat the process with the top guy cables to establish a straight mast.
4.
Apply fine tensioning adjustments using the turnbuckles (see Figure 36).
