LIGHTING TOWER POSITIONING When choosing a location for the lighting tower, bear in mind the following: ‐ Assess site conditions carefully before positioning and operating the machine. ‐ The working area should be relatively level and solid. This will ensure smooth, trouble‐free telescoping of the mast. (which may not telescope properly if the unit is not level.) ‐ Do not position the tower in the vicinity of overhead cables or power lines! ‐ Never raise the mast or operate the tower without properly jacking the unit! ‐ For maximum light coverage and illumination efficiency, locate the unit at ground level or in a spot higher than the area being illuminated by the lamps. ‐ Do not move the tower with the mast raised! HANDLING AND TRANSPORT HANDLING AND MANUAL TRANSPORTATION Hold the extendable handle with one hand and pull the locking pin to release it. Pull the handle outwards until it’s fully extended and ensure that the locking pin locked it in place securely in the extended position. Move slowly and position the machine where needed.

HANDLING AND TRANSPORT HANDLING AND TRANSPORT WITH CRANE Handling by crane is allowed only if the machine is connected to the crane through the lifting eye. (C) Ensure that the lifting capacity of the crane and lifting devices is suited to the weight of the machine to move. The weight is specified in the provided documentation (user’s manual) and on the data plate. Connect the cable/hook to the lifting eye (D) and tension the cable. Lift the machine for about 10 cm (4 in.). Move slowly and position the machine on the ground or on the vehicle. HANDLING AND TRANSPORT WITH FORKLIFT Ensure that the lifting capacity of the forklift is suited to the weight of the machine to move. The weight is specified in the provided documentation (user’s manual) and on the data plate. Insert the forks into the forklift pockets (E). Lift the machine for about 10 cm (4 in.). Move slowly and position the machine where needed. Manual Code - MI400A00105 Revision Level 00 - 09/09/2019 13 ...
LIGHTING TOWER USE STABILIZING THE UNIT The stabilizers are extendable (F) and (G). Jack up the unit as follows. Hold the stabilizer with one hand and pull the locking pin to release it. Pull the stabilizer outwards until it’s fully extended and ensure that the locking pin locked it in place securely in the extended position. Jack the unit up by rotating the handle on the top of each stabilizer clockwise. Please refer to the bubble levels (H) installed on top of the machine (near the mast) in order to have the machine perfectly leveled and stable before rising the tower. The wheels of the machine have to touch the ground at all times. DIRECTING THE FLOODLIGHTS The tower can be rotated up to 340 degrees in order to direct the light as required. Release the rotation locking pin (I) and turn the tower using the rotation handles on the mast in order to direct the lights as needed. Don’t forget to lock the rotation afterwards. Additionally to the mast rotation, each of the LEDs can be adjusted on two axes and tilted back and forth. This way the lights can be directed either vertically or horizontally. In order to adjust the light on the vertical axes, the encircled pin (L) needs to be unlocked by pulling it and then turning the floodlight. For any adjustments, the mast must be lowered to allow access. ...
LIGHTING TOWER USE PRELIMINARY CHECK Before operating the unit, we suggest making the following routine checks for improved safety, better efficiency, longer product life and in order to avoid work disruptions. Check that the machine is leveled correctly and stabilized firmly. Check that all the lamp lenses are clean and undamaged. After adjusting the lights, prepare to raise the tower by: Inspecting the cable and replacing it, if damaged. Checking mounting hardware for proper tightness and re‐torquing if necessary. Raise the mast and insert the safety pin supplied in the appropriate hole, see picture. Ensure that all the electrical cables are undamaged and correctly connected. Check that the main switch and the lamps switches are in the OFF position. Drive the earth picket into the ground (earth) following any risk assessment. (*) Check that the grounding cable is securely attached to the unit. Open the frontal door to access the control panel. For operators’ safety, the grounding of the machine always needs to be done paying attention on the section of the cable to be used (never to be less than 10 mm2). For the connection of the grounding cable, please always use the clip located on the control panel, on the right side of the machine. Always perform grounding operations in compliance with local/international regulations.
