OPERATING SAFETY

Before using the light tower be sure you read and understand all of the instructions! This equipment was

designed for specific applications; DO NOT modify or use this equipment for any application other than

which it was designed for. Equipment operated improperly or by untrained personnel can be dangerous!

Read the operating instructions and familiarize yourself with the location and proper use of all instruments

and controls. Inexperienced operators should receive instruction from someone familiar with the equipment

before being allowed to operate or set up the light tower. The following points should be practiced at all times:

• The area immediately surrounding the light tower should be dry, clean, and free of debris.

• Position and operate the light tower on a firm, level surface.

• NEVER start a unit in need of repair.

• Lower tower when not in use, or if high winds or electrical storms are expected in the area.

• Make certain light tower is well grounded and securely fastened to a good earthen ground.

• The tower extends up to 30 ft. (9m). Make sure area above trailer is open and clear of overhead wires

and obstructions.

• Bulbs become extremely hot in use! Allow bulb and light fixture to cool 10-15 minutes before handling.

• Keep area behind trailer clear of people while raising and lowering mast!

• NEVER raise, lower or turn mast while unit is operating!

• Trailer must be leveled and outriggers extended before raising tower. Outriggers must remain extended

while tower is up.

• If for any reason any part of mast hangs up or winch cable develops slack while raising or lowering

tower, STOP immediately! Contact an authorized service representative.

• NEVER remove safety pin or pull mast locking pin while tower is up!

• NEVER use tower if insulation on electrical cord is cut or worn through.

• NEVER operate lights without protective lens cover in place or with a lens cover that is cracked or

damaged!

ENGINE SAFETY

Internal combustion engines present special hazards during operation and fueling! Failure to follow the

safety guidelines described below could result in severe injury or death. Also read and follow all safety

warnings described in the Engine Operator's Manual. A copy of this manual was supplied with unit when

it was shipped from the factory.

• DO NOT run engine indoors or in an area with poor ventilation unless exhaust hoses are used. Diesel

engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a deadly, odorless and colorless gas which, if inhaled,

can cause nausea, fainting or death. Make sure engine exhaust cannot seep into closed rooms or

ventilation equipment.

• DO NOT Operate the unit on a combustible surface.

• DO NOT fill fuel tank near an open flame, while smoking, or while engine is running. DO NOT fill tank

in an enclosed area with poor ventilation.

• DO NOT operate with the fuel tank cap loose or missing.

• DO NOT touch or lean against hot exhaust pipes or engine cylinders.

• DO NOT clean air filter with gasoline or other types of low flash point solvents.

• DO NOT remove engine coolant cap while engine is hot.

• DO NOT operate the unit without a functional exhaust system. Prolonged exposure to sound levels

in excess of 85 DBA can cause permanent hearing loss. Wear hearing protection when working around

a running engine.

• Keep area around exhaust pipes and air ducts free of debris to reduce the chance of an accidental fire.

• Batteries contain sulfuric acid which can cause severe injury or death. Sulfuric acid can cause eye

damage, burn flesh or eat holes in clothing. Protective eye wear and clothing are necessary when

working on or around the battery. Always disconnect the NEGATIVE (-) battery cable from the

corresponding terminal before performing any service on the engine or other components.

• Shut the engine down if any of the following conditions exist during operation:

1. Noticeable change in engine speed.

2. Loss of electrical output.

3. Equipment connected to the generator overheats.

4. Sparking occurs.

5. Engine misfires or there is excessive engine/generator vibration.

6. Protective covers are loose or missing.

7. If the ambient air temperature is above 110° F.

SERVICE SAFETY

This unit uses high voltage circuits capable of causing serious injury or death. Only a qualified electrician

should troubleshoot or repair electrical problems occurring in this equipment.

• Before servicing light tower, make sure the engine start switch is turned to OFF, circuit breakers are

open (off) and the negative terminal on the battery is disconnected. NEVER perform even routine

service (oil/filter changes, cleaning, etc.) unless all electrical components are shut down.

• NEVER allow water to accumulate around the base of the light tower. If water is present, DO NOT

service!

• NEVER service electrical components if clothing or skin is wet. If the unit is stored outside, check the

engine and generator for any moisture and dry the unit before use.

• NEVER wash the unit with a power washer or high pressure hose.

• Open main circuit breaker before disconnecting battery cables.

• Keep hands, feet, and loose clothing away from moving parts on generator and engine.

• Make sure slings, chains, hooks, ramps, jacks, and other types of lifting devices are attached securely

and have enough weight-bearing capacity to lift or hold the equipment safely. Always remain aware

of the position of other people around you when lifting the equipment.

TOWING SAFETY

Towing a trailer requires care! Both the trailer and vehicle must be in good condition and securely fastened

to each other to reduce the possibility of an accident. Also, some states require that large trailers be

registered and licensed. Contact your local Department of Transportation office to check on license

requirements for your particular unit.

• Check that the hitch and coupling on the towing vehicle are rated equal to, or greater than, the trailer's

“gross vehicle weight rating” (GVWR).

• Check tires on trailer for tread wear, inflation, and condition.

• Inspect the hitch and coupling for wear or damage. DO NOT tow trailer using defective parts!

• Make sure the trailer hitch and the coupling are compatible. Make sure the coupling is securely fastened

to the vehicle.

• Connect safety chains in a crossing pattern under the tongue and attach the breakaway cable TO

THE REAR BUMPER OF THE TOWING VEHICLE. Do not attach the cable to the trailer hitch.

• Make sure directional and brake lights on the trailer are connected and working properly.

• Check that all lug nuts holding wheels on are tight and that none are missing.

• Maximum recommended speed for highway towing is 45 m.p.h. Recommended off-road towing speed

is not to exceed 10 m.p.h. or less depending on terrain.

When towing, maintain extra space between vehicles and avoid soft shoulders, curbs and sudden lane

changes. If you have not pulled a trailer before, practice turning, stopping, and backing up in an area away

from heavy traffic.

A film of grease on the coupler will extend coupler life and eliminate squeaking. Wipe the coupler clean

and apply fresh grease each time the trailer is towed.

REPORTING TRAILER SAFETY DEFECTS

If you believe your trailer has a defect which could cause a crash or could cause injury or death, you should immediately

inform the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying Magnum Products LLC.

If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation; and if it finds that a safety defect exists in a group

of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy campaign. However, NHTSA cannot become involved in individual

problem between you, your dealer, or Magnum Products LLC.

To contact NHTSA, you may either call the Auto Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY:1-800-424-9153),

LIGHT TOWER SET UP

1. For maximum light coverage locate tower at ground level or in a spot higher than the area being illuminated by

the lamps.

WARNING

The tower extends up to 30 ft (9.14 m). Make sure area above the trailer is open and

clear of overhead wires and obstructions.

2. Place the trailer on firm ground that is relatively flat. This will make it easier to level the tower. Block the wheels

on the trailer to keep it from moving (A).

3. Pull the locking pin on the tongue jack and rotate it 90º until the spring loaded pin snaps back into place (B).

Turn the jack handle clockwise to raise the trailer tongue off of the towing vehicle.

4. Connect a good earthen ground to the grounding stud on the frame of the trailer near the trailer tongue (C).

5. Pull the locking pins (D) on the outriggers (E) and pull the outriggers out until the spring loaded locking pin snaps

back into place. Pull the locking pin on the outrigger jacks and rotate them 90º so the jack pads are facing down

and the spring loaded pin snaps back into place.

6. Pull the locking pin on the rear jack (F) and rotate it 90º until the spring loaded pin snaps back into place. Turn

the jack handle clockwise to start leveling the trailer. Adjust all four jacks by turning their handles clockwise until

they are firmly in contact with the ground and the trailer is as level as possible (G).

7. Before raising the tower it may be necessary to adjust the lamps. The lamps may be adjusted up, down, left or

right by loosening the wing nuts on the trunnion (H) and aiming the lamps in the desired direction. Tighten the

hardware completely and make sure the lamps are connected to the junction box.

RAISING THE TOWER

WARNING

The trailer must be leveled with the outriggers extended before raising the tower. The

outriggers must remain extended while the tower is up. Failure to level the trailer or

extend the outriggers will severely reduce the stability of the unit and could allow the

tower to tip and fall.

1. Remove the mast cradle locking pin from the mast cradle (I).

2. Check both sets of mast cables for excessive wear or damage. Make sure the cables are properly centered in

each pulley (J). Check the electrical cord for damage.

WARNING

Do not start the unit if the insulation on the electrical cord is cut or worn through.

Bare wires in contact with the mast or frame may energize the trailer and cause

electrocution. Repair or replace cord.

3. Make sure the area behind the unit is clear before

raising the mast to the vertical position.

4. Remove the safety pin (K) from the mast lock bar (L).

Using the handle for the lower mast winch (M), raise

the mast until it is vertical and the tab on the mast is

positioned into the mast lock. The mast lock bar

should snap into place automatically. Secure the

lock with the safety pin (N).

5. After the mast is up and locked into place, use the

upper mast winch (O) to telescope the tower to the

desired height. Extend the mast slowly, making sure

that the electrical cord is extending at the top sec-

tions of the mast. If, for any reason, the winch cable

begins to develop slack or any of the tower sections

get stuck, STOP IMMEDIATELY and contact an

authorized service center.

CAUTION

Do not extend the mast beyond

the colored mark on the middle

mast tube (P).

6. The mast can be rotated by loosening the locking

knob at the bottom of the mast (Q). Turn the mast until

the lights face in the desired direction and then

tighten the knob.

WARNING

Never raise or lower the mast

while the unit is operating!

Never remove the safety pin or

mast lock while the tower is up.

RAISING THE TOWER WITH THE OPTIONAL ELECTRIC WINCH

1. Set up and level the trailer as described on page 12, and follow

steps 1-3 on page 13.

2. Remove the safety pin from the mast lock bar (R).

3. Press the lower winch control toggle switch upward to raise mast

into the vertical position (S). Hold switch until the mast lock is

engaged. The mast lock bar should snap into place automati-

cally. Note: On light towers equippedwith the electric winch

option, a limit switch on the mast tube will disconnect power to

the lower electric winch to prevent deadheading the winch.

4. Secure the lock with the safety pin (T).

5. Press and hold the upper winch control toggle switch upward to

telescope the mast to desired height (U). Extend the mast

slowly, making sure that the coiled electrical cord is extending at

the top sections of the mast. If, for any reason, the winch cable

begins to develop slack or any of the tower sections get stuck,

STOP IMMEDIATELY and contact an authorized servicecenter.

CAUTION

Do not extend the mast beyond

the colored mark on top of the

lower mast section (V). On light

towers equipped with the electric

winch option, a limit switch on the

main mast section will disconnect

power to the upper electric winch

to prevent over extending the

mast.

6. The mast can be rotated by loosening the locking knob at the

bottom of the mast (W). Turn the mast until the lights face in the

desired direction andthen tighten the knob.

WARNING

Never raise or lower the mast

while the unit is operating!

Never remove the safety pin or

mast lock while the tower is up.

Releasing the lock will cause

the mast to fall.

ENGINE STARTING AND OPERATION

1. Check engine oil, fuel and coolant levels. Note: If the engine was run out of fuel or the fuel tank was drained, it

may be necessary to bleed the fuel lines. Refer to the engine operation manual supplied with the unit.

2. Check the condition of the electrical cord on the inside of the unit.

WARNING

Do not start the unit if the insulation on the electrical cord is cut or worn through.

Bare wires in contact with the mast or frame may energize the trailer and cause

electrocution. Repair or replace cord.

3. Check that the main circuit breaker and individual circuit breakers for

each of the lights are in the off “O” position. Note: If the red light on

the control panel “TURN MAIN BREAKER OFF” is illuminated when

the key is turned to the “START” position, the breaker is closed

(switched on).

WARNING

NEVER START THE ENGINE

WITH ANY OF THE CIRCUIT

BREAKERS SWITCHED ON!

Any load on the generator

during start up will cause

severe damage or destroy the

generator!

4. Turn the key on the engine start switch to the left “GLOW PLUG” position and hold the key in place until the glow

plug indicator turns red. As soon as it’s glowing turn the key to the right to the “START” position and hold it until

the engine cranks and starts running. Release the key, it will move to the “RUN” position.

Do not crank the engine longer than 10 seconds at a time. If the engine will not start, wait

30 seconds to allow the starter motor to cool and then repeat the starting procedure.

Excessive cranking will cause damage to the starter.

5. Note: If oil pressure is not obtained within 30 seconds after the key is switched to the “RUN” position, the low-

oil automatic shutdown will turn off the fuel supply, stopping the engine. Check the oil level and turn the key to

the “OFF” position to reset the oil pressure timer before attempting to restart the engine.

6. Once the engine is running, allow it to reach normal operating temperature before switching on any loads.

AUTOMATIC SHUTDOWN

This unit is equipped with a low oil pressure and high coolant temperature auto-shutdown system. This system will

automatically shut off the fuel supply to stop the engine if oil pressure drops too low or the engine exceeds normal

operating temperature. Return the switch to the “OFF” position to reset the unit after you have determined the cause

of the shutdown.

LIGHT OPERATION

1. Once the engine is up to temperature and running smoothly,

switch main circuit breaker (1) to the ON “I” position.

2. With main circuit breaker on, switch each individual circuit

breaker for the lights (2) to ON “I”, one at a time.

3. The ballast indicator lights (3) will come on momentarily as the

lights strike. As the lights warm up, the ballast indicator lights will

continue to get brighter and then remain on. This confirms that

power is coming from the ballasts to the lights.

4. If an indicator light does not come on, the ballast may need to

be serviced. If the indicator light comes on and stays lit but the

related light is not illuminated, check the bulb or the mast wiring.

5. The lights require a warm up period of 5-15 minutes before they

reach full output. If the lights are shut down, they require a cool-

down period of approximately 10 minutes before they can be

switched on again.

6. The light tower uses four 1000W bulbs. When checking or replacing the bulbs, wipe them with a clean cloth to

avoid leaving any grease, oil residue or fingerprints on the glass. Any residue can create a hot spot on the bulb,

causing premature bulb failure.

WARNING

NEVER OPERATE THE LIGHTS WITHOUT THE PROTECTIVE LENS COVER OR WITH

A LENS COVER THAT IS CRACKED OR DAMAGED! The bulbs in the light fixtures

produce high temperatures and operate under pressure. A broken or missing lens

cover could cause the bulbs to shatter, causing injury.

WARNING

Bulbs become extremely hot in use! Allow bulb fixture to cool 10-15 minutes before

handling.

AUXILIARY OUTLETS

The control panel is equipped with two outlets for running accessories

or tools from the generator. Power is supplied to the outlets any time

the engine is running and the main circuit breaker is switched on “I”.

Note: Do not pull more than 1000W from each outlet when the lights

are on. This will overload the generator and cause the main circuit

breaker to trip. Should the breaker trip, switch off the lights, remove

some of the load to the outlets and wait 10 minutes for the bulbs to

cool before turning them back on.

With all of the lights off, the full generator output may be used with

the 240V twist-lock outlet.

DERATING FOR ALTITUDE

All light towers are subject to derating for altitude and temperature. Although derating should not affect the operation

of the lights, it will reduce the available power for operating tools and accessories connected to the auxiliary outlets.

Typical reductions in performance are 2-4% for every 1000 ft. (305 m) of elevation and 1% per 10º F (3-5º C) increase

in ambient air temperature over 72º F (22.2º C).

LOWERING THE TOWER

1. Shut down the lights and engine. Allow the lights to cool 10-15 minutes before lowering the tower.

2. Turn the upper mast winch handle to collapse the tower to its lowest position. Make sure the electrical cord

returns to the storage tube properly.

WARNING

If the mast hangs up or the winch cable begins to develop slack, STOP IMMEDIATELY!

Excess slack in the cable could cause the mast to collapse should it free up without

warning. Contact an authorized service center.

3. Loosen the mast rotation knob and rotate the tower so the mast mounted winches face the front of the unit. The

white alignment arrow points should line up on the mast sections and the metal stop tabs should be touching.

Tighten the mast rotation knob.

4. Release the mast lock by pulling the safety pin on the mast lock and pulling the lock free. Turn the handle of the

lower mast winch until the mast spring begins to pivot the tower down. Release the mast lock and continue to

lower the tower until it rests in the cradle. Note: If the mast lock does not pull free, operate lower winch slightly

to relieve pressure on the mast lock.

5. After the mast is completely down, insert the cradle lock pin and secure it with the safety pin.

6. Position lights to aim at the ground. If the trailer is going to be moved, Magnum Products LLC strongly recommends

that the lights be removed from the mast and stowed for transportation. See REMOVING THE LIGHTS FOR

TRANSPORTATION section on page 19.

LOWERING THE TOWER EQUIPPED WITH THE OPTIONAL ELECTRIC WINCH

1. Shut down the lights and engine. Allow the lights to cool 10-15 minutes before lowering the tower.

2. Loosen the mast rotation knob and rotate the tower so the mast mounted winches face the front of the unit. The

white alignment arrow points should line up on the mast sections and the metal stop tabs should be touching.

Tighten the mast rotation knob.

3. Press and hold the upper winch control toggle switch downward to collapse the mast to its lowest level. Make

sure the coiled electrical cord on the top sections of the mast does not get tangled on the mast sections. Note:

Some electric winch models are equipped with an anti-backlash safety limit switch. This switch will disconnect

power to the winch if excess cable slack is detected, preventing accidental lowering of the tower. If, for any

reason, the cable begins to develop slack or any of the tower sections get stuck, STOP IMMEDIATELY and

contact an authorized service center.
