available at www.campbellsci.eu or by telephoning [phone] (UK). You are responsible for conformance
with govern i ng codes and r egulations, i ncluding safety regulations, and the i ntegrity and location of structures or land
to which towers, tripods, and any attachments are attached. Installation sites should be evaluated and approved by a
qualified engineer. If questions or concerns arise regarding installation, use, or maintenance of tripods, towers,
attachments, or electrical connections, consult with a licensed and qualified engineer or electrician.

General

• Prior to performing site or installation work, obtain required approvals and permits. Comply with all

governing structure-height regulations, such as those of the FAA in the USA.

• Use only qualified personnel for installation, use, and maintenance of tripods and towers, and any

attachments to tripods and towers. The use of licensed and qualified contractors is highly recommended.

• Read all applicable instructions carefully and understand procedures thoroughly before beginning work.

• Wear a hardhat and eye protection, and take other appropriate safety precautions while working on or

around tripods and towers.

• Do not climb tripods or towers at any time, and prohibit climbing by other persons. Take reasonable

precautions to secure tripod and tower sites from trespassers.

constructing, using, or maintaining, or a tool, stake, or anchor, come in contact with overhead or
underground utility lines.

• Maintain a distance of at least one-and-one-half times structure height, or 20 feet, or the distance

required by applicable law, whichever is greater, between overhead utility lines and the structure (tripod,
tower, attachments, or tools).

• Prior to performing site or installation work, inform all utility companies and have all underground utilities

marked.

• Comply with all electrical codes. Electrical equipment and related grounding devices should be installed

by a licensed and qualified electrician.

Elevated Work and Weather

• Use appropriate equipment and safety practices.

• During installation and maintenance, keep tower and tripod sites clear of un-trained or non-essential

personnel. Take precautions to prevent elevated tools and objects from dropping.

• Do not perform any work in inclement weather, including wind, rain, snow, lightning, etc.

Maintenance

• Periodically (at least yearly) check for wear and damage, including corrosion, stress cracks, frayed cables,

loose cable clamps, cable tightness, etc. and take necessary corrective actions.
