GLOBUG GB12BW/BS/BP LIGHTING SYSTEM — SETUP (GB12BS)

Raising the Mast (GB12BS)

1.Before raising the mast, make sure the T-handle bolt lock (see Figure 26-O) is securely tightened. This will prevent the balloon/lamp assembly from falling off. In addition make sure that the lamp power cable is connected to the mating end of the power source cable.

2.Raise extension pole (see Figure 26-L) to desired height. Watch out for any overhead obstructions.

3.Using the supplied 19 mm wrench tighten extension clamp bolt (see Figure 26-Q) securely. Place wrench in a safe place where it will not get lost.

Applying Power (GB12BS)

1.If using a portable generator, start the generator as referenced in the "Start-up Section" of the supplied generator manual.

2.Once the generator has started, plug the AC power cord from the lamp into a GFCI receptacle on the generator.

3.If using a power source (Figure 31) other than a portable generator, plug the AC power cord from the lamp into a 120 VAC, 60 Hz receptacle that is protected by a at least a 15 amp circuit breaker.

DANGER - Overhead Obstructions

ALWAYS make sure the area above the lighting system is open and clear of overhead power lines and other obstructions. The mast can extend in

excess of 8 ft. (2.4 meters) depending on the type of equipment it is attached to.

Serious Injury or Death!

DANGER - HIGHVOLTAGE POWER LINES

When raising mast, ALWAYS be on the lookout for overhead obstructions such as high voltage power lines.The possibility exists of electrocution,

even death! if the lighting system comes in contact with high voltage power lines.

4.Notice that the balloon envelope will begin to deploy as soon as power is applied.

5.The lamp should now be on. If the lamp is not on, check all connections and repeat steps 1, 2 and 3. If the lamp still does not come on, refer to the troubleshooting tables provided in the maintenance section of this manual.

6.The GB12BS lighting system is now ready for use.

Shutdown

1.If using a portable generator, shut-down the generator as referenced in the "Shutdown Section" of the supplied generator manual. ALWAYS place the main circuit breaker in the OFF position before turning off the generator.

2.If using a power source other than an AC generator, disconnect the lamp AC power cable from the power source. The balloon should begin to deflate.

3.Remove and store balloon assembly as referenced in the "storage" section of the GB12BW.
