the battery to avoid eye irritation. The battery
contains acids that can cause injury to the
eyes and skin.
Use well-insulated gloves when picking up the battery.
ALWAYS keep the battery charged. If the battery is not
charged, combustible gas will build up.
ALWAYS recharge the battery in a well-ventilated
environment to avoid the risk of a dangerous concentration
of combustible gasses.

The GB4000 lamp fixture is a difused balloon light that is
designed to be mounted and operated on most conventional
mobile light tower masts. Its design and features permit
clean, difused light to be cast uniformly over 232 feet (70.7
meters).
The shadow-less lighting dramatically reduces glare in
the work area. This type of lighting improves safety and
enhances the illuminated area. The GB4000 is ideal for
highway work, construction job sites, security support, and
special events.
The balloon light assembly is supported by four 1000-watt
metal halide lamps, self-inflating durable polyester balloon
bag, protective lamp guard, quick disconnect communal
mast bracket, and self-contained electrical junction box.
Once attached to the mast, the GB4000 utilizes the ballast
assembly, electrical conduits, and receptacle connections
of conventional mobile light towers to permit operation.
The GB4000 requires 2000 watts of power and the host
light tower electrical ballast system for operation. Total lamp
operation will be limited to the design and capacity of the
host light tower.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The unit easily disconnects from the light tower mast and
can be easily stored in its protective canvas cover case.

PREPARATION
1. Place the light tower in an area free of dirt and debris
with enough clearance as not to interfere with any
overhead obstructions. Make sure it is on secure level
ground with chock blocks underneath each wheel to
prevent the light tower from rolling.
DANGER
ALWAYS make sure the area above
light tower is open and clear of
overhead power lines and other
obstructions. The tower extends in
excess of 30 ft. (9 meters). Contact
with overhead power lines or other
obstructions could result in equipment
damage, serious injury or death!
2. If the light tower is in the deployed position, place the
tower mast into the cradle support (stowed position).
See Figure 4. Make sure cradle lock/release pin has
been inserted and the mast is locked.
POWER DISCONNECTION
1. For LT12D light towers, disconnect the negative cable
(black) from battery. See Figure 5.

SETUP
LAMP ADAPTER PLATE MOUNTING INSTALLATION
1. Remove the adapter plate kit hardware from its
container.
2. Before proceeding make sure the light tower mast is
in the stow position (down) and the cradle lock/release
pin has been inserted and the mast is locked.
3. Attach the lamp adapter plate to the T-Bar as shown
in Figure 7. Align adapter plate so that adapter spacer
notch fits over screw on T-Bar. Pay close attention to
the orientation of the two support brackets.
4. Mount the flat end of both support brackets flush
against the T-Bar with the low end of each bracket
facing inwards toward the mast. The raised end of
each bracket should be facing outward.
NOTICE
Pay close attention to the orientation of the two support
brackets. Each bracket has a high and low side. The low
side of the bracket should be facing inwards towards
the mast.
5. Next, insert a bolt (4) and flat washer (4) thru the
mounting holes on the adapter plate as shown in Figure
7. Again, pay close attention on which set of holes to
