14 AL4000 Light Tower Part No. 833002 Rev A
SETUP
F. When applicable, drive grounding rod into earth. (Grounding rod not included)
1. Drive the rod into the ground and secure the grounding wire to the lug located on the
trailer frame.
G. When applicable, install the floodlights on the crossarm.
1. Remove the light fixtures from their packing boxes and install them on the crossarm
with the lens facing the ground.
2. The cord on the fixture should be on the side closest to the trailer so the cord entry is
beneath the fixture when the tower is raised (this reduces moisture problems and
insures the water weep hole in the fixture is down).
3. Set the vertical aim for each light fixture by adjusting the light fixtures and tightening
the lower bolt.
Never adjust fixtures with power on.
4. Set the spread between the fixtures horizontally by adjusting the fixtures and tightening
the mounting nut.
5. The light fixtures may be left on the unit when towed around the job site.
6. Plug each fixture into the receptacles provided. Plug into the numbered receptacles in
a clockwise rotation starting at the upper or 1:00 o’clock position. This makes trouble
shooting easy without lowering the tower.
If Tungsten Halogen lamps are used, the cord must be routed
and secured away from the fixture. Failure to do so may
result in cord burn-through and short circuit due to the high
fixture temperature.
