MANUAL WINCH MAST OPERATION DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION The Allmand NIGHT-LITE 6330 tower assembly consists of a three section telescoping mast which can be raised and extended by operating two hand crank winches. One winch, mounted with the handle extending through the side of the trailer frame, raises and lowers the mast from the horizontal towing position, the vertical position, and back. The second winch mounted on the tower extends the telescopic sections.
MANUAL WINCH MAST OPERATION ! SAFETY WARNING 6. Operate the hand crank on the side of the trailer counterclockwise to fold the mast down into the towing position. IF THE TOWER CANNOT BE ROTATED AFTER LOOSENING THE BLACK KNOB, CHECK TO ASSURE THE LOWER LATCH IS ENGAGED IN THE STRIKE PLATE. THIS DOUBLE LATCH FEATURE PREVENTS THE TOWER FROM BEING ROTATED IF THE LATCH IS NOT ENGAGED. ! NOTE: Sufficient load (75 lb.
STRONG ARM ELECTRIC WINCH MAST OPERATION DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION The Allmand NIGHT-LITE 6330 tower assembly consists of a three section telescoping mast which can be raised and extended by operating a single electric winch mounted inside the enclosure.

THIS DOUBLE LATCH FEATURE PREVENTS THE TOWER FROM BEING ROTATED IF THE LATCH IS NOT ENGAGED. ! SAFETY WARNING VISUALLY INSPECT EQUIPMENT FOR DAMAGE BEFORE OPERATING. ALLOW ADEQUATE CLEARANCE AROUND TRAILER FOR TOWER AND INSURE THAT NO PERSONS ARE STANDING IN FRONT OF OR BEHIND UNIT WHEN LOWERING.
SPECIFICATIONS NOTE. In testing the Lister-Petter engine at the factory, the manufacturer uses an oil for moderate and low temperatures. This oil is specially formulated to assist in the break in period, and we would like it to be left in the engine for the first 100 hours. Additional information on fuel and lubrication specifications is found in the Lister Petter Industrial Engine Operators Handbook.
SPECIFICATIONS BEFORE STARTING 1. Fill the engine with the right grade of lubricating oil (see pg. 19) and to correct level (check dipstick). 2. Ensure there is an adequate supply of fuel. 3. Ensure that the air cleaner is firmly attached, the air canister seals and the hose clamps are properly sealed. Air cleaner element should be checked and replaced if necessary. 4. Install the ground rod. DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION By depressing the start assist switch, the fuel solenoid is energized.
