2. See Figure 3-2. Remove mast cradle locking pin
from mast cradle (A).
3. Check the mast cables for excessive wear or
damage. Verify the cables are properly centered in
each pulley (B). Check the electrical cord for
damage.
4. Remove the safety pin from the mast lock bar (C).
Using the handle for the lower mast winch (D),
raise the mast until it is vertical and the tab on the
mast is positioned into the mast lock. The mast
lock bar should snap into place automatically.
Secure the lock with the safety pin (E).
5. Use the winch (F) to slowly extend the mast, making
sure that the coiled electrical cord is extending at
the top sections of the mast. STOP extending the
mast when the colored mark (G) on the second
mast section is visible as seen in Detail G.
6. The mast can be rotated by loosening the locking
knob at the bottom of the mast (H). Turn the mast
until the lights face in the desired direction and then
tighten the mast rotation knob to secure the mast in
position.
WARNING
Tipping hazard. Do not extend the mast beyond the
colored mark on the second mast section. The unit
can become unstable and tip or fall, causing injury.
WARNING
Personal Injury. Stop immediately if the mast hangs
up or the winch cable develops slack. Excess slack
could cause the mast to collapse, resulting in personal
injury or equipment damage.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Contact a Generac Mobile
Products Authorized Service Dealer immediately if
the mast hangs up or the winch cable develops
slack.

Configure for Intended Use

As described in "General Information", the engine in this
unit runs at low speed when the LED lights are operating
and no loads are connected to the 120 or 240V
(000265)
convenience outlets. The engine runs at high speed
when the LED lights are turned off. Therefore, before
starting, determine if auxiliary equipment will be
connected to the convenience outlets. Then set up the
unit based on the intended use:
LED Lights Only
Turn the 240V outlet breaker OFF. The engine will run at
low speed while operating, greatly reducing sound
emissions and fuel consumption.
LED Lights and Export Power
Turn the 240V outlet breaker ON and Load Sense OFF.
The engine will run at high speed for powering high
amperage equipment.
LED Lights and Export Power with Load Sense
Turn the 240V outlet breaker ON and Load Sense ON.
The engine will run at high speed when detecting applied
load(s) such as hand tools and low amperage equipment.
