WARNING: The mast assembly must remain in the stowed position until the outriggers are properly set to
stabilize the trailer . Erecting the mast without setting the outriggers can cause the light
tower set to tip over when raising the mast.
Trailer Setup See Figure 4-1 for component identification. Carefully read all instructions before starting.
1. Locate a suitable, level location (
±
5% incline maximum). Do not use the POW’R LITE
on grades that are greater than 5%. Also be sure there are no overhead wires or
obstructions.
The POW’R LITE is balanced so the majority of the weight rests on the tow bar (front
Jack). If on an incline, the safest way to position the tailer is to have the tow bar facing
down the incline (front of the trailer lower than the rear of the trailer).
2. Apply and check the parking brake if equipped (optional equipment).
3. Disconnect the safety chains and the trailer light connector from the tow vehicle.
4. Pull the pin on the front jack and rotate the jack 90 degrees to the vertical position.
Lock the jack in the vertical position using the pin to secure it.
5. Move the Coupler Handle to the vertical position to release the ball hitch.
6. Use the jack to raise the trailer coupler from the ball hitch of the tow vehicle.
7. The tow vehicle can now be moved away from the POW’R LITE.

8. Pull the Outrigger Lock for the right jack and fully extend the right outrigger. Lock the
outrigger into position using the Outrigger Lock.
9. Pull the Jack Lock Pin for the right jack and rotate the jack to the vertical position. Lock
the jack in its vertical position using the Jack Lock Pin.
10. Repeat steps 8 and 9 for the left outrigger and jack.
11. With the rear trailer stabilization in its fully extended position (Figure 4-3 right view),
adjust the three jacks to level the trailer. All three jacks must be in firm contact with the
ground and the trailer must be level so the light tower will be vertical when raised.
