Section 2
This section describes the installation of the Mast System and provides general procedures that
must be followed to ensure a successful installation. Use care to understand and follow all
precautions while installing.
2.1 Pre-Installation Check
Before installing the system, ensure:
•
All installers read and understand the entire installation procedure
•
Only a properly trained and qualified certified electrician performs electric installations
and maintenance
•
All components are included (Section 1.7)
•
All required equipment is readily available (Section 2.2)
•
The mounting structure is level with sufficient room to mount the system (Section 0)
•
When installing in a vehicle, that the vehicle is stationary and on a level surface
•
That the following precautions are understood and followed:
Equipment Damage! At survival wind speed, an extended mast can generate 22,500 lb.-ft.
(270,000 lb.-in. or 366,120 N-m) at the Base. The mounting structure must be designed
accordingly. Before installation, ensure the mounting structure is capable of resisting forces
generated from all loading and environmental conditions, including, but not limited to, Mast
System size and weight, payload size and weight, sail size, wind speed, Guy Line arrangement,
support bracket or roof line location and base plate assembly. Mounting the Mast System into a
structure unable to resist the forces generated from the customer-specific loading scenario could
result in death or serious injury and could damage the Mast System.
Trained Personnel Only! Only trained and qualified personnel should perform installation
procedures. Only a properly trained and qualified certified electrician should perform electric
installations. Death or serious injury could result if proper installation procedures are not
observed. All persons installing and maintaining this equipment should be suitably qualified and
work to local, regional, and national standards and codes of practice.
Mounting Structure Hazard! The mounting hardware must include proper means to resist
vibration loosening such as thread-locking compound or locking hardware. Mounting the Mast
System to a structure unable to resist the forces generated from customer-specific loading
scenario could result in death or serious injury and could damage the Mast System.
