Mounting Structure Hazard! 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, vehicle dynamic loads, sail
size, wind speed, support bracket or roof line location and base plate assembly. The lower
structure at the base plate shall be sized to support all vertical loads from the mast and payload.
The support bracket is not intended to carry vertical loads. The support bracket mounting
structure and the base plate mounting structure shall be tied to the same vehicle structure/frame
(i.e. do not mount the support bracket to vehicle body and the base plate to the vehicle chassis
frame. This would put the vehicle suspension system between the mounting points). 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
Equipment Damage – Lock Mechanism! Do not modify the mast lock mechanism or lock
housing or attach any components to the lock housing. Do no remove the locks with the mast
extended. Equipment damage and dangerous mast collapse could occur if the lock mechanism
is modified.
Disconnect Power! Power must be disconnected before connecting or disconnecting any Mast
System connector. For example, power must be disconnected when connecting or
disconnecting J1, J2, J3, and J4 on the Control Box. Do not disconnect the power cable from J1
on the Control Box, mast or from the power source while the mast is in motion (extending or
retracting). This could result in damage to the Control Box.
Equipment Damage – Cable Routing! Cabling or Nycoil should be routed such that it cannot
become trapped or pinched between the mast collars during retraction. This can interfere with
the lock mechanism functionality.
Safety Instruction – Roof Access! If mast will be mounted to a vehicle, the operator must
provide safe means to access the roof of the vehicle during installation and maintenance.
Safety Instruction – Mast Access! The operator must provide safe means to access the top of
the mast during installation and removal of the payload.
Equipment Damage – Cutting! Wear gloves when installing the electrical ground strap, and
handling icebreakers to avoid possible injury.
