Frozen Water Hazard! Water freezing inside mast or air fittings may render mast inoperable
and cause major equipment damage such as tube deformation. Ensure water is free to exit at
the base of mast. Open drain cock when mast is not in operation. The drain cock shall be
installed at the lowest position in the pneumatic system. If mounted internally in a vehicle or
structure, direct the draining water to a suitable location. Cover locking masts when not in use to
limit water ingress. Non-locking masts stored outdoors should be covered if possible. A cover is
available from The Will-Burt Company.
Lubrication! Do not lubricate the exterior of mast moving tubes. The lubricant will attract dust
and other environmental contaminants into mast.
Equipment Damage - Forces! Before unloading the system, be certain the unloading region is
capable of resisting forces generated from unloading the system including but not limited to
system weight. Ensure the unloading region is level and has sufficient room and strength to hold
the system. If the unloading region is incapable of meeting the requirements of the system,
damage to the system and/or unloading region could occur.
Equipment Damage - Support Bracket! For masts using an upper support bracket, do not
over-tighten mast support bracket. Over-tightening may damage the Base Tube causing mast
tubes to stick.
Mast and Payload Access! The operator must provide safe means to access mast and
payload during installation, removal and maintenance.
Tripping Hazard! Cables, trip lines, guy lines and guy anchors can be hard to see during and
after installation. Any equipment posing trip hazards should be clearly marked.
Safety Instruction – Roof Access! If mast will be mounted to a vehicle, user must provide safe
means to access the roof of the vehicle during installation and maintenance.
Lifting Hazard! Manually lifting over 55 lb. (25 kg) is prohibited. In the UK, all lifting equipment
must be thoroughly examined annually by a competent person according to the Lifting
Operations and Lift Equipment Regulations 1998. Equivalent regulations exist in other EU
states.
