OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To Raise the Mast
1 Unlock the mast hold-down latch.
2 Turn the Raise/Lower winch handle clockwise
until the mast reaches the full vertical position
and the front spring latch locks the mast firmly
in place.
To Extend the Mast
1 Turn the Extend/Retract winch handle clockwise
to extend the mast sections.
2 Approximately 6 inches / 15 cm below full mast
extension, the lamp fixture will begin to tilt. The
more the winch handle is turned, the greater the
tilt, until the mast is fully extended and the lights
are positioned.
Note: To adjust the lights after the mast is fully
extended, slowly lower the mast by turning the
winch handle counterclockwise until the lights are
in the desired position.
To Rotate the Mast
1 Press and hold the mast rotation lever and
rotate the mast to the desired position.
2 Release the lever.
To Stow the Mast
1 Press and hold the mast rotation lever and
rotate the mast to its original position. Line up
the black arrows on the front of the mast.
2 Turn the Extend/Retract winch handle
counterclockwise until the mast sections retract.
The mast is fully retracted when the blue arrows
on the side of the mast are lined up.
3 Pull and hold the mast release latch below the
control panel.
4 Turn the Raise/Lower winch handle
counterclockwise and lower the mast
completely into the transport cradle.
Note: If the mast has not been fully retracted, it will
not rest completely in the cradle.
5 Turn the mast hold-down latch handle
counterclockwise and push into the lock.
6 Turn the latch handle clockwise until the handle
points straight down. The latch should turn
freely without binding or hesitation.
