IMPORTANT: You may need to use pliers to spread open the cable thim-
bles to install them on the anchors. Use the pliers to press the open end of
the cable thimbles back together before attaching the guy wires.
CAUTION: Be
careful not to let
the guy wires
become twisted
when the tower
is erected.
4. Leave about 6 in (15 cm) of slack in the guy wires, and tighten the
cable clamps.
Note: The guy wire to the tower should contact the ‘saddle’ side of
the cable clamp. On level ground, there will be approximately 5 ft
(1.5 m) of extra cable.
5. Attach two cable thimbles to the third earth anchor located directly
below the tower.
6. Measure the length of the upper and lower guy wires on the side earth
anchors. Use the same length for the guy wires on the third earth anchor.
7. Secure the cable clamps to the third guy wire.
8. Place two cable thimbles on the fourth earth anchor. DO NOT connect
the guy wires at this time.
9. The fourth set of guy wires are used to help tilt the tower into position.
Secure these guy wires after the tower is upright.
Attaching the Guy Wires
1. Orient guy wire attachment plates with their corners pointing towards
the anchor. If they are not pointing towards the anchor, adjust them before
continuing.
2. Uncoil each guy wire bundle and extend them to their respective
anchoring point. The fourth anchor point is directly under the tower.
3. Begin attaching the guy wires to the earth anchors at the sides of the
tower.
• Insert two cable thim
bles in each earth
anchor eyelet.
• Thread an upper guy
wire and lower guy wire
around its own cable
thimble.
• Loosely attach two
cable clamps to each
guy wire.
