Safety Instructions
The system is rated to the load stated. The end user is responsible for ensuring the loads are securely fastened. Rolatube Technology does not accept liability or provide warranty for usage deviating from the enclosed instructions.
- Before deploying the mast please read all warnings below.
- Avoid contact with heavy and sharp objects, in storage do not stack anything on top of Rolatubes.
- Do not use the mast if there is visible damage.
- The end user must assess the suitability of the pegs provided for the intended deployment environment, and replace with more suitable products if necessary.
- Rolatube mast systems are rated for wind speeds of up to 100kph (62mph). The maximum wind rating is based on the bare mast correctly deployed and guyed. The end user or system integrator is responsible for ensuring the system is safe with the top load mounted. Rolatube recommends the use of 4 person deployment in high winds.
Warnings
- Ensure the deployment site is clear of any cables or equipment that represents an electric shock hazard.
- Do not deploy near power lines, in thunderstorms or winds exceeding 100kph (62mph).
- Do not exceed the rated top load of the mast.
- Ensure any top load is securely fastened.
- Do not allow the mast to bend.
- Ensure the deployment site is clear of any underground hazards before using pegs.
- Ensure guy ropes and pegs are secure for duration of deployment.
- Consideration must be given to the location of any cable from the top load to avoid trip hazards.
- Consideration must be given when deploying in proximity to an aircraft landing site for aircraft movement.
- Rolatube masts are only designed to function in the vertical axis.
Deployment (2 Person)
Person 1 — At base of mast: Deployment lead.
Person 2 — At opposite guy peg: Maintaining tension during deployment to keep mast vertical.
Person 2 — At opposite guy peg: Maintaining tension during deployment to keep mast vertical.
1
Assemble Double Tube
All: Unroll the two masts, lie them facing slot to slot and push one into the slot of the other.
2
Position Base Cap
Person 1: Place the base cap where the mast is to be deployed. Secure with red base cap pegs. Lie the assembled mast with one end next to the base cap.
3
Pace Out Guy Ropes
Person 2: Pace out the position of the various guy rope pegs at 120° intervals as illustrated, and fully drive pegs into the ground ensuring firm location.
4
Fit Top Cap, Top Load & Secondary Cuff(s)
Person 1: Fit top cap and top load, securing with spigot screw, then attach any secondary cuff(s) where black bands painted on the mast indicate.
5
Connect Guy Ropes
Person 2: Connect top cap guy ropes 1, 2 & 3 to the top cap (black tag). Set top cap guy ropes 1 & 2 to approximate deployment length (see table) and connect to their pegs. Connect any secondary cuff guy ropes to the secondary cuff(s) and leave loose. Extend top cap guy rope 3 to maximum length and stand opposite Person 1.
| Mast Height | Guy Rope 1 & 2 Set Length |
| 7m | 10m |
| 5m | 6m |
| 4m | 5m |
| 3m | 4m |
6
Walk Mast to Vertical
Person 1: Stand by the top load (equidistant between pegs for guy ropes 1 & 2), lift the mast and start walking it slowly to the vertical position until tension is achieved in top cap guy ropes 1 & 2.
Person 2: Provide assistance by maintaining tension on top cap guy rope 3 to pull mast vertical and minimise any sideways movement during deployment.
7
Place in Base Cap & Secure
Person 1: Place the mast in the base cap and support it whilst Person 2 secures, adjusts and tensions top cap guy ropes to ensure the mast is fully vertical, then secure any secondary cuff guy ropes being used.
IMPORTANT: In windy conditions or with difficult top load configurations, two additional deployment personnel will be required to stabilise the mast by maintaining tension on top cap guy ropes 1 & 2 during deployment.
RECOVERY: Person 2 loosens guy ropes but maintains light tension on guy rope 3 whilst Person 1 lifts the mast out of the base cap, walks mast down and removes top load, top cap and secondary cuff(s). DO NOT allow the mast to fall to the ground or damage to top load and mast may occur.
