• Before raising and securing the wind generator, check that:
1. All final mechanical checks have been made.
2. The cable is not trapped.
3. All electrical connections are secure and safe.
• The wind generator can now be raised into position.
Take care to avoid all moving parts when raising and lowering the wind
generator.
• When raised, secure the structure firmly in an upright position. The
performance of your Windcharger can be impaired if the pole is not vertical.
