4. COMMISSIONING

Before starting the lighting tower check its correct location on a rm and totally

levelled ground, to ensure a proper operation and stability in case of a strong

wind.

NOTE

Do not raise the mast if strong winds (more than 80km/h) or thunderstorms are expected

in the area.

4.1 CHECK LEVELS OF THE EQUIPMENT

Check engine oil, fuel and coolant levels as well as air lter condition (ref. engine

manual).

Check the hydraulic oil level of the tower (Ref. 6 Maintenance).

4.2 ANCHORAGE

Once carried out these important and simple checks to ensure the proper

operation of the tower and the gen-set, we will proceed to the correct anchorage

of the APOLO COMPACT lighting tower. You must follow the following steps

accurately:

• Turn the handle clockwise to raise the trailer hitch on the tow vehicle.

• Pull up the locking pin (A) and extend the outriggers (B) until the spring

pin snaps back into place.
