12 RL4000 Light Tower Part No. 833005 Rev A
SETUP
A. Move the light tower to desired location keeping the following in mind:
1. The light tower should not be placed where those working under the light are either:
a. Forced to look into the light regularly.
b. Forced to work with their backs to the light (shadows will block the light from the
work area).
2. The area where the tower is positioned should be relatively level for safe and proper
operation of the unit.
3. The light tower should be located on the same level or on ground higher than the work
area.
B. Use tire chocks in front of and behind each tire whenever possible. Always use tire
chocks on an incline.

1. Rotate the tongue jack into position (90 degrees), release the hitch pin and raise the
