5.13 Install Payload
The exact installation procedures for payload will vary based on the customer-specific payload
and payload platform or stud adaptor being used. For optimal performance, center the payload
as best as possible. If offsetting any payload greater than 600 lb. (272 kg), the payload offset
direction must be in-line with the tube keys, and not perpendicular to the keys. Contact The Will-
Burt Company with any questions before performing any installation procedures.
In general, to install the payload:
1. Ensure the air supply is disconnected and the drain cock is opened while installing the
payload to eliminate the possibility of inadvertent mast extension.
2. If necessary, remove the mast top cover.
Note: If the payload is removed, the mast top cover should be put back on.
3. Carefully move the payload into position.
4. Properly secure the payload to the mast. The mounting hardware must include proper means
to resist vibration loosening, such as thread-locking compound or locking hardware. Torque
all hardware as appropriate for its size and grade.
Note: If securing a payload part-way along a mast tube, be sure not to overtighten the tube, or
damage to the mast could occur. Intermediate tubes clamps are available to assist in attaching
payloads to the intermediate tubes. See www.willburt.com for additional information.
