Light Operation (Key Switch
Models)
WARNING

Figure 3-11. Light Switches and Breaker
NOTE: The lights require a warm up period of 5–15
minutes before they reach full output. If the lights are shut
down, they require a cool down period of approximately
10 minutes before they can be switched on again.
NOTE: The light tower uses four 1000W, 1050W or
1100W bulbs. When checking or replacing the bulbs,
wipe them with a clean cloth to avoid leaving any grease,
oil residue or fingerprints on the glass. Any residue can
create a hot spot on the bulb, causing premature bulb
failure.
WARNING
Burn hazard. Lamps become extremely hot
while in use. Allow 10–15 minutes for cooling
before handling or lowering mast. Touching a
hot lens or fixture can cause severe burns.

hot lens or fixture can cause severe burns.

Engine Derating

(000278)
All units are subject to derating for altitude and
temperature. Derating reduces the available power for
operating tools and accessories connected to the
receptacles. For every increase in 1,000 ft (305 m) of
elevation, engine performance for this unit typically drops
between 2–4%. Also, engine performance decreases
about 1% for every 10 °F (5.6 ºC) increase in ambient air
temperature over 72 ºF (22 ºC).
