Mounting Options
PERSONAL INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE HAZARD
Do not install the Honeywell Wind Turbine in a location that is accessible to
children or pets. Failure to follow this warning may result in death, personal
injury or property damage.
PERSONAL INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE HAZARD
The Honeywell Wind Turbine must be mounted by WindTronics Authorized
Installers or other licensed contractors only, with the use of all appropriate
hardware. Failure to follow this warning may result in death, personal injury
or property damage.
Failure to follow proper installation practices for any of the mounting options
could result in death, serious injury and/or property damage.
WHEN MOUNTING ON OR OVER A COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE, A FOOT
PLATE OF AT LEAST 1.43 mm GALVANIZED OR 1.6 mm UNCOATED
STEEL EXTENDED AT LEAST 150 mm BEYOND THE EQUIPMENT ON
ALL SIDES MUST BE INSTALLED.
Power shall be disconnected from the equipment before the DCCC junc-
tion box enclosure is opened and the enclosure shall be closed before the
power is restored. Failure to do so may result in death, serious injury and/or
property damage.
If any maintenance is to be done on the turbine, the turbine must be put in
STOP mode, the turbine switch on the DCCC junction box must be in the
“Turbine Off” position and the wheel must be tie wrapped to prevent turning.
Failure to do so may result in death, serious injury and/or property damage.
Use of WindTronics’ products for other than their intended purpose may
void warranty.
Whichever mounting option is chosen should be approved by a local Professional Engineer (PE). All of
the options listed have been rated by our Professional Engineer and certied for WindTronics. Please
refer to the following designs and their included specications.

Instructions for Pole Top Mount Assembly
Step 1:
• Position Leg Weldment
#WTM001 to bottom of
#WTM002 Coupler Weldment.
• Bolt together using fastener #’s:
70210, 70714, 71021, 71071 as
shown.
• Repeat pattern in three additional
locations.
Step 2:
• Position Mounting Bracket
#WTM003 to top of #WTM002
Coupler Weldment.
• Bolt together using fastener #’s:
70210, 70714, 71021, 71071 as
shown.
Note:
Be sure both pole and pole cou-
pler are installed level. Failure to
install them level will impact turbine
performance and may impact
warranty coverage.
Be sure the inner surface of the
Mounting Leg Weldment is ush
against the pole prior to bolting the
fasteners. Choose the bolt hole in
the base of the Pole Mount Turbine
Coupler Weldment that aligns with the
slot in the Mounting Leg Weldment.

DCCC Junction Box
Purpose:
The DC Charge Controller junction box is the interface between the turbine and the
DC Charge Controller which includes the dump load, turbine ON/OFF switch and
anemometer. The DC Charge Controller uses the dump load to put the turbine in STOP
mode when there is a fault, a user has pressed the STOP key, or when the generator
voltage exceeds 165VDC. When the voltage decreases, the brake is released. The
turbine ON/OFF switch will put the turbine in a hard STOP mode whether or not the
dump load is connected. It also disconnects the turbine from the DC Charge Controller.
Mounting:
The junction box comes hard wired to the turbine. It should be mounted to ensure the
anemometer will be able to function through all seasons (i.e. will not be covered with
snow in the winter). The junction box can be mounted through two pre-drilled holes
tapped for 5/16”-18 bolts in the black mounting bars on the back of the junction box.
The QUADPOD Mount has pre-drilled holes for mounting of the junction box. Mounting
hardware is supplied by the Installer.

Lift Point
Only WindTronics Authorized Installers or other licensed contractors should move and
lift the Honeywell Wind Turbine. The turbine should only be moved using standard
hoists and hydraulic lifts such as a crane or bucket truck. The recommended lift point
is shown in gure 6.
Wiring
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
Disconnect turbine and battery circuits before wiring. Turn off all power
before wiring. Failure to follow safety warning could result in serious injury
and/or death.
PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION: REQUIRED
Installations must meet all local electrical codes. Installations for the equipment should
only be performed by WindTronics Authorized Installers or other licensed contractors.
The wiring connections between a mounted Honeywell Wind Turbine, battery box and
DC Charge Controller are relatively simple. Figure 8 (page 14) details and species
the wire gauges required in this installation. It is strongly recommended that a licensed
electrician performs all the electrical connections. All electrical systems must be
grounded in accordance to your National Electric Code and local standards.
