I. Introduction 

 

Note: This manual is for tower and solar kit installation only.  For instructions on installing the anchor bolts into the 
foundation, see the ETP-MT/R Anchor Bolt Installation Instructions. 

 

II. Contents 

 

Before beginning installation, make sure you have all the included components.  Each Tower consists of three 
packages. Package #1 contains the tower itself.  Package #2 labeled MT/R BOLT KIT contains the anchor bolts 
and template for foundation prep work.  Package #3 labeled TOWER PTS SOLAR contains the lighting and 
hardware for final tower assembly.  The solar panels and accessories are shipped separately because they vary 
by installation location.  The bill of materials is summarized below:
