components for the LT6D light tower. The function of each

component is described below:

mast Rotation Locking Knob — Unscrew this knob to

release mast for rotation. Tighten this knob to lock mast

after it is set to the desired position.

mast extension Winch — Use this winch to extend the

mast to the desired height. Maximum height is 31.5 feet

(9.60 meters).

D-Ring Lifting Point — Attach a suitable lifting device

to this lifting point capable of lifting 2000 lbs. (257

kg). The D-ring lifting point has been positioned for a

fully balanced/configured light tower. Removal of any

components will unbalance the light tower.

4.

Forklift Pockets — The light tower can be lifted by

inserting the forks of a forklift as far possible into the

pockets.

5.

Cradle Lock/Release pin — Locks mast in cradle

support and releases mast when removed.

6.

mast Cradle support — When towing of the light tower

is required, place the tower mast into the cradle support.

Make sure cradle lock/release pin has been inserted

and mast is locked.

7.

Lights— Four 1000-watt metal-halide bulbs with a

110,000 lumens capacity each. Light coverage is

typically between 5 to 7 acres.

8.

horizontally.

9.

vertical mast Winch — Use this winch to raise the mast

to the vertical position.

10.

Side Reflectors — There are four reflectors located on

the side of the light tower. The front reflectors are amber

and the rear reflectors are red.

11.

mast Lock/Release Lever — When the mast is in the full

vertical position, this lever must be in the locked position

(down).To place the mast in the stow position, push the

lever upward to release the mast.

12.

Ball Hitch Coupler — Attach the trailer's 2-inch coupler

to the towing vehicle. Use only the specified ball diameter

as indicated on your coupler. Use of any other ball

diameter will create an extremely dangerous condition

which can result in separation of the coupler and ball

or ball failure.
