Mounting Instructions

1. Unpack the shipping box. Inside you will find an Extenda-Pod assembly that is totally prewired and ready to mount and a PLMT Pod Mounting Bracket set which includes the following; one (1) PLMT, vehicle mounted spring loaded pin assembly, one (1) Pod-Ring Assembly already mounted on the tripod and one (1) Foot Bracket.
2. Inspect the box and all items inside for damage. Report any damage to the delivering carrier immediately. If there is any damage, save the box and all packing materials.
3. Select the location for your new Extenda-Pod. Make sure there are no pipes or wiring that will be damaged when the mounting holes are drilled. Remember your new Extenda-Pod is a telescoping light when mounted on the apparatus and a portable lighting tower when removed.
4. If your new Extenda-Pod does not fit where you want to mount it, contact us immediately for assistance.
5. When mounting any Extenda-Pod with the PLMT Pod-Bracket Set, the Pod-Ring with its tapered boss is mounted on the outside pole between the tripod leg locking collar and the telescoping lock collar. The tapered boss on the Pod Ring slides into the PLMT spring loaded pin assembly that is mounted on the apparatus. The three legs of the tripod slip into the Foot Bracket. Select the location of the Foot Bracket and the PLMT. Make sure the Extenda-Pod and brackets are square and parallel. Mark, center punch and drill each of the four (4) 5/16" holes for the top PLMT and Foot Bracket. Bolt these parts in place. Slide the Pod-Ring up or down on the outside pole until it lines up and can be snapped into place in the PLMT. After making sure that the Pod Ring lines up and fits into the PLMT, remove the piece of plastic under one of the two (2) set screws of the Pod-Ring and tighten.
6. Set tripod legs into the Foot Bracket and the Pod-Ring into the PLMT making sure that the spring pin snaps into the hole on the Pod-Ring's tapered boss. Adjust as required.
7. Each Extenda-Pod come with either a 120 volt or 240 volt plug and requires a licensed electrician do the wiring on all 110/220 volt, AC receptacles adjacent to the Extenda-Pod. All electrical equipment must be wired to a properly protected circuit breaker box following all National Electrical Codes.
   

Note: A convenient way to run cords through the body panels or into the compartments is with the use of a Hubbell SHC-1022 strain relief and/or its equal. This will give you a water tight sealed connection and wire protection all in one.

Black wire to circuit breaker's hot side.
White wire to breaker box's neutral bar.
Green wire to breaker box's ground terminals.
Plug = Green to Green; White to Silver; and Black to Brass colored terminal inside of plug.
Make sure all wires are ran in areas that will not be hit or abraded. Use wire ties to hold securely in place.
