1.2 Machine Description and Intended Use

This machine is a mobile, trailer-mounted light tower. The Wacker

Neuson Light Tower consists of a trailer with a cabinet containing a diesel

engine, a fuel tank, a control panel, and an electric alternator. A

telescoping tower with four metal halide lights is mounted to the top of the

cabinet. Dual winches tilt, raise, and lower the telescoping tower. As the

engine runs, the generator converts mechanical energy into electric

power. The metal halide lights run off this power. Receptacle(s) are also

present to power auxiliary loads. The operator uses the control panel to

operate and monitor the machine.

This machine is intended for the illumination of outdoor areas. This

machine is also intended for the purpose of supplying electrical power to

connected loads. Refer to the product specifications for the output voltage

and frequency of this Light Tower, and for the maximum output power limit

of this Light Tower.

This machine has been designed and built strictly for the intended use

described above. Using the machine for any other purpose could

permanently damage the machine or seriously injure the operator or other

persons in the area. Machine damage caused by misuse is not covered

under warranty.

• The following are some examples of misuse:

• Connecting a load that has voltage and frequency requirements that

are incompatible with the machine output

• Overloading the machine with a device that draws excessive power

during either continuous running or start-up

• Operating the machine in a manner that is inconsistent with all

federal, state and local codes and regulations

• Using the machine as a ladder, support, or work surface

• Using the machine to carry or transport passengers or equipment

• Using the machine to tow other machines (unless factory equipped)

• Using the machine as a hoist or hanging items from the tower

• Operating the machine outside of factory specifications

• Operating the machine in a manner inconsistent with all warnings

found on the machine and in the Operator’s Manual

This machine has been designed and built in accordance with the latest

global safety standards. It has been carefully engineered to eliminate

hazards as far as practicable and to increase operator safety through

protective guards and labeling. However, some risks may remain even

after protective measures have been taken. They are called residual

risks. On this machine, they may include exposure to:

LTN 6L Safety Information

wc_si000227gb.fm 11

• Heat, noise, exhaust, and carbon monoxide from the engine

• Heat from the lights

• Ultraviolet radiation from the lights

• Fire hazards from improper refueling techniques

• Fuel and its fumes

• Electric shock and arc flash

• Personal injury from improper lifting the trailer tongue

• Glare from lights (lights may blind drivers of nearby motor vehicles if

the lights are incorrectly positioned)

• Typical hazards related to towing a trailer on roads and highways

To protect yourself and others, make sure you thoroughly read and

understand the safety information presented in this manual before

operating the machine.

1.3 Safety Guidelines for Operating the Machine
