4. Remove the last 2 of the M20 x 45 bolts connecting the tower base and 1
st
segment.
5. Place a crowbar between the tower base plate and tower 1
st
segment on the gin-pole side
and apply slight pressure to lift the tower out of the stable position. Second person must
stabilize the tower from the gin-pole until the lifting equipment is able to hold the tower on its
own. After this do not stand near or under the tower or gin-pole lowering the tower.
6. Lower the tower slowly on to the tripods or pallets.
7. Keep enough pressure on the lifting cable to prevent the gin-pole from falling down.
6. Assembling the turbine
Step 1: Placing the generator
1. Remove lid and yaw system flange side of the generator transportation box (see Figure 15).
2. Place the generator package near the tower 2
nd
top, leaving approximately 1 m distance. The
generator package weighs about 230 kg, therefore a lifting aid in form of a tractor, fork lifter or
a crane is necessary to perform the operation. Use the strong base of the box to do the lifting.
! IMPORTANT:
Make sure you DO NOT place any body part underneath the lifted object
while it is being lifted.

3. Run the two wires coming out from the yaw system through the mast and out of the 1
st
segment hole for wires (see Figure 4).
! TIP:
Use a long rod or a strong blank cable to
perform the operation.
