Assembly of  Aluminum T-14 Pole with Mounting Kit and T-14 House Mount

Step 27)

  Mount the last three-section house just 

like you did in step 24, and don’t forget to tighten 
the wing nuts.

Step 28)

  We need to attach the looped end of the 

cable onto the tarpaulin hook.   Again, have your 
helper   reverse   the   brake   winch   handle   allowing 
you   to   grasp   the   cable   and   pull   it   towards   the 
hook.   Once you have looped the oval loop over 
the tarpaulin hook, and your fingers are free, have 
the helper raise the T-14 house by cranking the 
winch clockwise.  Go slowly, watch that your cable 
is in the notch at the back the house.

If everything looks good, close and lock the doors, 
remove the bungee cords and run your house up 
the pole.   Place your safety Pin (N) back into the 
hole on the pole, and insert the hitch pin.

How to lock the winch

.     The   last   item   in   the 

mounting kit hardware box is a lock with a piece 

of chain (Q).   Remove the packing from the lock, 
and in order to open the lock you will need to re-
move one of the keys on the key ring.  Open the 
lock.     Take   the   chain   wrap   it   so   that   it   goes 
around   the   winch   handle   behind   the   cable,   and 
then with the hasp of the lock insert it through the 
chain links both ends.  Close the lock.
