Using the Block Heater
The light tower trailer can be equipped with an optional
400W, 3.3A, 120V, 60Hz electric, frost plug style block
heater. Use a grounded (3 prong) extension cord to
connect to the plug of the block heater to an appropriate
electric power source.
For the Kubota, Caterpillar, and Perkins engine, the block
heater is located on the right side when viewed from the
fan side.
Automatic Engine Shutdown System
The engine is equipped with an automatic engine
shutdown system to prevent engine damage in the event
of a low oil or overheat condition.
If the engine has automatically shut down, locate the
source of the failure and repair before restarting the
engine.

Rotating The Light Tower
Failure to tighten the light tower locking knob may cause
the light fixtures to swing inadvertently, especially in
windy conditions or during transport, and could result in
death or serious injury. Always tighten the tower locking
knob securely after turning the light tower.
Rotating the light tower will cause the light fixtures to
swing, and could result in minor to moderate injury. Be
careful to rotate the tower slowly, and be aware of the
light fixtures while rotating the tower.
1. Shut down the engine. See Operating the Engine.
Wait 10 minutes for the lights to cool.
2. Loosen the light tower locking knob (A, Figure 21).
3. Using the handles (B, Figure 21), rotate the light
tower in the desired direction.
