60FOOT plus all-aluminum tower
The tower is an all-aluminum tower designed to be field deployed by one or more people. It does not require a prepared surface or foundation of any kind. The kit consists of a launcher, eleven tube sections, guy wires and all hardware and tools to assemble a 60 foot + mast Useful for any application requiring a temporary or permanent tower such as lighting, surveillance, emergency communications or RF survey work. The quick erection time also makes the mast very useful for antenna experimentation and use in neighborhoods where a permanently installed tower is not allowed.
Tower and guy locations are laid out using the supplied radius rope. The tube carrier is removed from the launcher and the locking pins for the brake, the elevator and the winch reel are removed. The top adapter is attached to a mast section and the mast section is installed and locked with the brake in the top of the launcher. The top guy ring is installed over the top adapter section and the longest guy wires are connected to the guy ring. The antenna may be attached to the top adapter at this time or after the launcher has been guyed. Anchors are installed and the base of the launcher is pinned to the ground. The first set of guy wires is connected to the top of the launcher and adjusted using the built in level to hold the launcher in a vertical position. The elevator mechanism is lowered to the bottom of its travel. A tube is inserted and clamped to the already installed top section. The brake is released and the winch is used to raise the elevator platform and tube to its uppermost position. The mast is locked in place and the elevator is lowered back to the bottom. Another tube is installed and the process is repeated. During the installation of the fifth tube the middle guy ring and associated guy wires are attached to the mast. When all mast sections have been installed, the guy wires are secured to the anchors and tensioned. Under windy conditions or when erecting, the guy wires should be tended by additional people to maintain the tower in a perfectly vertical position. The entire mast sits on a bearing assembly and may be rotated from the base. This allows for antenna positioning from the ground without the use of a rotor.
