3.2 EMERGENCY STOW (LOSS OF POWER):
Make sure all power has been disconnected from the INFLEXION prior to manually lowering mast.
In the event of power loss, the INFLEXION mast will vent and lower automatically but the mast will not return to its fully
stowed horizontal position. If possible, this must be accomplished manually and must be done with extreme caution. It
may be necessary to manually pan the payload so that when it is manually stowed, the payload does not make contact
with the mounting surface or the saddle. Consult payload manufacturer to determine if best way to move the payload
without power.
To emergency stow the mast, proceed as follows:
1.
Remove the base access cover.
2.
Make sure all power has been disconnected from the system by turning all breakers to the OFF position.
3.
Ensure your payload is secure and may by safely lowered.
4.
Remove the base cover.
5.
Remove the 6mm Allen (set screw) on the end of the actuator cover (Figure 3-2 Emergency Stow Allen
Screw Location).
6.
Place a long 6mm Allen wrench into the hole to reach the 6mm Allen-head drive screw. A socket Allen
wrench may be used but care must be taken not to damage the adjacent air compressor.
7.
Turn the socket Allen wrench clockwise to lower the mast. Lower the mast until it seats firmly in the
saddle.
8.
Replace the 6mm Allen set screw.
9.
Replace the right side base cover.
