3. If the unit is going to be moved, rotate the mast so
the lights face the rear of the unit. To rotate the mast:
a. Loosen the mast rotation knob.
b. Rotate the mast until the white arrows are
aligned and the metal stop tabs are touching.
c. Tighten the mast rotation knob.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Contact an ASD immediately if
the mast hangs up or the winch cable develops slack.
NOTE: If the generator is not operational, and the
batteries do not have enough power to lower the mast, it
may be necessary to lower the mast manually.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not use this procedure
unless it is absolutely necessary. Frequent use of
this procedure could damage the motor shaft.

after the mast is completely lowered.
Towing the Unit
Once the engine is shut down and the mast and lights are
properly stowed, prepare the unit for towing as follows.
1. Raise the outrigger jacks completely and release
the locking pins to rotate them up into the travel
position. Make sure the locking pins snap into
place. Release the outrigger locking pins and slide
the outriggers into the trailer frame until the locking
pins snap into place.
2. Use the tongue jack to raise or lower the trailer
onto the hitch of the towing vehicle. Lock the hitch
coupling and attach the safety chains or cables to
the vehicle. Remove the tongue jack locking pin
and rotate the jack into the travel position. Replace
the locking pin.
3. To ensure proper operation of the jacks, lubricate
the grease fittings located on the leveling jacks.
