f. LIGHT ASSEMBLY
Light assembly consists of a control box with a 150 foot input power cable and a 70 foot output cable
interconnected to a dual obstruction light. This assembly is attached to the two legs on the left side of the fully
assembled tower.
(1) From the antenna transit case, obtain the LIGHT ASSEMBLY and place it on the ground on the left side of
the first LARGE TOWER SECTION 4 feet from the TOWER BASE. Remove the reusable straps retaining
the INTERCONNECTING CABLE and store with the assembly by attaching the straps around the conduit
between the JUNCTION BOX and the OBSTRUCTION LIGHT.
(2) Keeping on the left side of the tower, carry the OBSTRUCTION LIGHT forward to the tower top uncoiling
the INTERCONNECTING CABLE while you walk. Exert a slight tension on the cable to make it as straight
as possible and place OBSTRUCTION LIGHT on the ground next to tower. Return to the CONTROL BOX
at TOWER BASE.
(3) With one crewmember holding the CONTROL BOX crossmembers right against the two antenna legs,
place clips (two on each side) over tower legs and engage crossmembers. Tighten wingnuts on all four
clips to secure CONTROL BOX in place.
