 Connections to true earth examples; the followings are examples of feasible methods,
using:
 1) an earth rod driven to a proper depth;
 2) the earth terminal of an adjacent fixed installation;
 (3) permanent structural steelwork;
 4) exposed reinforcement bars in concrete foundations or structures;
 (5) a suitable metallic structure known to be earthed.
 Connection of MET to true earth shall be made, by means of earthing conductor, to the
site system means of earthing
 The earthing conductor shall be not less than 6 square millimetre cross section.
 The resistance of such a conductor, including contact resistance, shall not exceed 0,2
Ohms.

Damage/interruption of earthing conductor could lead to danger.

7.2.2 Commentary
 As required by IEC 60364, HD 60364, the earthing conductor sizing has been suggested
taking as reference the prescriptions for protective conductors, see table below.

 Residual current devices (RCD) on the unit may be used for 2 purposes, namely:
 1) for insulation-monitoring of the system which has complete metallic enclosure of
circuit conductors;
 2) for user protection in case of contact between a live conductor and true earth or
metallic enclosure.
 Application (2) above, demands that the electrical system is referenced to true earth to
enable an RCD to operate correctly on the first fault to true earth.

 It is recommended that an earth electrode resistance, where practicable, should not


exceed 200 Ω. This is a general advice but take into account that, for rod electrodes, it is
vertical depth that should be encouraged to enhance safety of installation.
 As reference, the resistance of a rod Rr in ohms (Ω) may be calculated from the formula:

 Where:
 ρ is the resistivity of soil, in ohm meters (Ωm);
 L is the length of the electrode, in meters (m);
 d is the diameter of the rod, in meters (m).
 When soil measurements is not practicable, refer to table below.

9. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE


The lighting tower VT-8 has been studied taking in consideration 3 fundamental
characteristics:
 enough contained dimensions
 high reliability
 quality of the constructive materials

The constructive materials in uses guarantee not only an extreme strength of the tower, but
they are also synonymous of longevity, in fact these materials are protected against
oxidation like rust. The possibility to lowering the tower is the fundamental factors in the field
of the movement and the transports. The tower can be installed and used by a single
operator in the maximum safety. The floodlights used on tower, complete with lamps, are
made from the best producers in the world and carefully checked.

10. PERIOD OF INACTIVITY


If the machine has to be stopped for a long period (more than one year), we suggest to
keep the oil, the fuel and the coolant to the inside of engine, in order to avoid oxidizing
effects; we suggest to disconnect also the battery cables. When the machine turns to work
again, the liquids must be replaced, the battery must be charged; the belts and their state
the pipes, the rubber hoses and their resistance must be checked and a visual inspections
of the electric connections must be done.

11.7 SPECIFICATION OF THE WINCH

 WARNING!!! The maximum load of the winch is 900 kg. It is important that the
entire structure of the lighting tower does not come modified in order not to
compromise of the stability and the functionality of the winch.
 The winch is provided by an automatic pressure brake with anti-slip mechanism that
consents an easy and uniform raising and lowering of the telescopic mast. The reducer
is lodge protected from every impurity; the new side cover eliminates the chine and
protect it from dust.
 A new procedure of construction with the aid of CNC Machines assures the maximum
quality and robustness, thanks also to the use of new valuable materials; the life of the
winch is increased thanks to the strengthening of the frame.
 The protection of the external surface has been improved thanks to a new yellow
coloured galvanization.
 WARNING!!! It is important that, for any problems there were imperfections or
damaged parts, the user does not proceed to the raising of the mast until to the
resolution of such problems in collaboration with the staff of GENERAC MOBILE
PRODUCTS S.r.l.
 WARNING!!! Verify, at every use, that the steel cable winds correctly up on the
drum hub. It is necessary to prevent that the steel cable kinks itself in improper
way on the winch, eventually helping itself with the hands, protected by gloves, to
“address” the steel cable. Check that the cable is lubricated and that it doesn’t
generate friction along its way.

11.10 LAMP
The metal halide lamps used in the floodlights of the lighting tower allow to a greater lighting
system regarding the traditional halogen lamps and concur to an inferior energetic
consumption beyond to one duration much elevating of near 8000 hours.
The metal halide lamp is a high intensity discharge lamp based on the emission of
electromagnetic cancellation from part of a ionizated gas plasma. The ionization of the gas
is obtained for means of a discharge electrical worker (from which the name) through the
gas.
The metal halide lamps derive from the high pressure sodium vapor lamps with the added of
thallium, Indian, dysprosium, holmium, cesium, thulium, which they improve the yield of the
colors of the sodium lamps, and give one temperature to their color much elevated
(4000-5600) K. Their chromatic yield renders them particularly adapted where there is the
necessity of having a light perfectly white. For being ignited they need of apposite igniters
and injectors that produce impulses of tension between 0,75 and 5 kV and for the
attainment of the full light flux, in phase of ignition, they are necessary few minutes.
In case of accidental putting out it is necessary to wait the cooling of the lamp
(about 15 minutes) before a new ignition, because of the high tension that would be
necessary for a hot ignition.

15.9 REMARKS
It is important that the operator will be always careful at every eventual disadvantage had at
usury or breakdown.
It is necessary that the use of the lighting tower will be effected from expert personnel,
careful at eventual structural disadvantage, seen the size of the structure.
It is advised to do always a visual check and general at every use, above all at those parts
always in movement and subjected at usury.
The expert user must not permit to anybody to stay near to the lighting tower, when it is in
function.
Let always wide space round to the lighting tower.
It is recommended to place the base the most possible in plan in order to facilitate the
regulation of the stabilizers (make reference to the spirit level placed on the frame (Fig. 1).

It is also recommended to place the structure in a stable place, verifying the


consistence of the earth to allow a sure support to the stabilizers.
Pull the hand brake if the tower is supplied of undercarriage for towing.
It is allowed the use of the lighting tower only at a qualified staff.
Before to use the lighting tower it is recommended to the authorised staff to consultate all
warnings and dangers described into this manual.
The manufacturer is not responsible of any damage at things or person, in
consequence at the inobservance of safety norms.
Before any operation on the machine ensure yourself that the lighting tower is not feeded
and that there are not any parts in movement.
For the electrical connection between the floodlights and the command panel of the lighting
tower it has been used a turn cable 9G2,5 mmq placed to the inside of a cylinder that allows
a comfortable sliding.
The electrical connections are simplified so as to concur the uncoupling of the command
panel for a check and an eventual maintenance or substitution of damages pieces. It is also
possible to remove and to replace the cruise of the lighting tower. For the electrical
connection of the floodlights we are previewed plastic boxes with degree of protection IP56.
In case of use of the lighting tower in adverse acclimatizes situations, with too much low
temperatures or high, take care to the turn cable and its normal sliding to the inside of the
cylinder because the cable is subject to momentary structural deformation.

have a base oil viscosity equal to 18 mm²/s at 40°C and to 4,5 mm²/s at 100°C.

17.2 LUBRICATION OF MAST SECTIONS


For the lubrication of the mast sections, we recommend to use a light lubricating oil like
WD40. Spray it on the metal parts of the mast, in order to avoid squeaking and scrapping
noises during the raising and the lowering operations. In case of frequent use, lubricate
every three months.

17.3 LUBRICATION OF STABILIZERS


Grease periodically the stabilizer using a dense grease adapted to sliding system to apply
through the apposite tool to insert in the valves placed on the stabilizer (if previewed). Verify
if the movement of the stabilizer is correctly.

17.4 LUBRICATION OF THE WINCH


The winch has already been lubricated in the works. It is recommended however that the
drive shaft bearing bushes and the drum hub be oiled regularly. Grease the toothed wheel
rim regularly. Ensure that the crank gear is always lubricated.
WARNING!!! Do not oil or grease the brake mechanism.

17.5 CHECK OF STEEL CABLES


It is periodically necessary to verify their conditions and their perfect dragging inside the
pulleys It is recommended to periodically to verify their condition and ensure their correct
position inside the pulleys. It is the Manufactures recommendation that all cables and
pulleys are replaced as required. If the steel cable shows unusual signs of wear or damage,
do not use the lighting tower and contact the GENERAC MOBILE PRODUCTS S.r.l.

19. REPLACE THE LAMP AND FLOODLIGHT GLASS


In case of replacement of the lamps or the floodlight’s glass:
For (11.8) version : open the floodlight through the 4 stainless steel hooks (1), inserting a
screwdriver in the appropriate slots previewed on the hooks. The hooks are with hinge to
support the frame when opened. Replace the lamp or the glass. Close the floodlight’s glass
being careful to position correctly the hooks in their seat.
N.B.: in the 2 inferior floodlights the hooks that support the frame when opened are situated
on the superior side, therefore it is necessary to sustain manually the cover during the
operations of lamp’s replacing.
For (11.9) version: open the floodlight unscrewing the screws placed on the frame. Replace
the lamp or the glass. Close the floodlight re-screwing the screws.
The use of the NARVA-G.L.E. NACHROMA NCT 1000 W 230 V lamp is recommended. If a
lamp by a different manufacturer is used, the same shall necessarily meet the requirements
