When all blades and tip brakes have been mounted correctly, the parking brake should be
engaged and a tagline attached to the two downward pointing blades, around the tip brake hinge
point. The twist cable attached to the base of the wind turbine generator should be looped and
tied so that it is lifted with the turbine.
All necessary tools (see Appendix I) and hardware (mounting bolts, nuts and washers) should be
taken to the top of the tower. 1" non-locking nuts are useful as quick fasteners to secure the
tower top casting to the tower temporarily. These items may be raised together with the wind
turbine generator to make climbing easier.
