If the light tower trailer has been stored or not operated
for a period of time, follow these steps to prepare the
Night-Lite™ GR-Series light tower trailer for use.
1. Make sure that a copy of the Operator's Manual
is with the light tower trailer in the manual storage
container.
2. Make sure that all safety decals are legible and in
place on the light tower trailer. See Safety Decals in
the Operator Safety section.
3. Do a check of the light tower trailer for correct
operation:
A. Make sure that the trailer tongue is locked in
either the park or towing position. See Trailer
Tongue.
B. Use an appropriate means to safely support
the trailer tongue. Make sure that the tongue
jack operates correctly, and that the jack can
be locked in the transport position as well as
the trailer support position. See Operating the
