MAY 2021
3 Introduction
Thank you for selecting The Will-Burt Company for your critical payload elevation needs. These
operating instructions describe transporting, handling, installing, operating, maintaining, storing,
and troubleshooting procedures for the Night Scan Vertical, Night Scan Vertical Complete, and
Night Scan Vertical Heavy Duty Towing (HDT). These procedures assume the use of standard
mast systems. Procedures and characteristics for mast systems customized to meet customer-
specific needs may vary.
These masts are transportable lighting systems that consist of a directionally adjustable group of
lights attached to a self-erecting, extensible mast. It may also serve as a platform for
communications antennae or a camera. Air pressure required to extend the mast is provided by
the vehicle air system or an optional compressor unit. The Night Scan Vertical, Night Scan
Vertical Complete, and Night Scan Vertical HDT mast systems are designed for installation on
any vehicle for the purpose of providing on-the-scene temporary lighting and communications or
surveillance. The Night Scan Vertical HDT is designed to fit between the cab and toolbox of a
heavy wrecker. This manual covers both the single-tilt and dual-tilt of the masts.
These operating instructions are intended for professionals who are qualified by their appropriate
training and experience to perform the procedures. Review this document in its entirety. Contact
The Will-Burt Company with any questions before performing any procedure outlined in this
manual.
