Step 2: Placing the tower 1
st
segment
1. Place the tower 1
st
segment hinge between base plate hinges (see Figure 4). The 1
st
segment
weighs about 285 kg, therefore a lifting aid in form of a tractor, fork lifter or a crane is
necessary to perform the operation. Use synthetic lifting slings to make contact with the tower
1
st
segment in order not to damage the zinc layer.
! IMPORTANT:
Make sure you DO NOT
place any body part underneath the lifted object while it is being lifted.
2. Once the tower segment hinge and base plate hinges are coaxial, place the M27 x 500
threaded bar through the hinges.
3. Place A 28 washers onto both ends of the threaded bar.
4. Place M27 nuts onto both ends of the threaded bar and fix them by hand only.

5. Place the mast tripod or wooden pallets with a height of 0,7 m underneath the 1
st
segment
approximately 2,6 m from the foundation edge (see Figure 5).
6. Lower the tower 1
st
segment onto the tripod or pallets and release the lifting equipment.
! IMPORTANT:
Make sure that the segment is securely supported and shall not fall over.
