I. Introduction
Note: This manual is for tower and solar kit installation only. For instructions on installing the anchor bolts into the
foundation, see the ETP-MT/R Anchor Bolt Installation Instructions.
II. Contents
Before beginning installation, make sure you have all the included components. Each Tower consists of three
packages. Package #1 contains the tower itself. Package #2 labeled MT/R BOLT KIT contains the anchor bolts
and template for foundation prep work. Package #3 labeled TOWER PTS SOLAR contains the lighting and
hardware for final tower assembly. The solar panels and accessories are shipped separately because they vary
