STRONG ARM ELECTRIC WINCH MAST OPERATION
DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION
The Allmand NIGHT-LITE 6330 tower assem-
bly consists of a three section telescoping
mast which can be raised and extended by
operating a single electric winch mounted
inside the enclosure. A single three position
toggle switch mounted on the control panel is
used to raise and lower the mast. The winch
and cable are protected by an integral clutch
and a circuit breaker. The clutch is designed to
slip when the mast reaches full extension. The
circuit breaker is a safeguard for the clutch. If
the clutch is misadjusted or inoperative the
circuit breaker should trip to protect the system
from overload. The electric winch operates off
the 120 volt circuit breaker along with 120 volt
receptacle thus requiring that the 120 volt
circuit breaker switch must be on to oper-
ate the winch.
The three section mast assembly can be
rotated from the ground by loosening a knob
and rotating the entire assembly 360° to aim
the lights as necessary.
