2 Description of the product
2.1 Intended Use and Reasonably Foreseeable Misuse
The machine is a mobile, trailer-mounted light tower. The Hybrid Light Solutions Light Tower consists of
a trailer with a diesel generator, a fuel tank, a control panel, and a hydraulic power system with a
telescoping tower with four lights. An hydraulic cylinder raises and lowers the telescoping tower. As
the engine runs, the generator converts mechanical energy into electric power. The LED lights run off this
power.
This machine has been designed and built strictly for the intended use described above. Using the
machine for any other purpose could permanently damage the machine or seriously injure the operator
or other persons in the area. Machine damage caused by misuse is not covered under warranty.
The following are some examples of misuse:
Operating the machine in a manner that is inconsistent with all federal, provincial and local codes and
regulations
Using the machine as a hoist or hanging items from the tower
Operating the machine outside of factory specifications
Operating the machine in a manner inconsistent with all warnings found on the machine and in the
Operator’s Manual
This machine has been designed and built in accordance with the latest safety standards. It has been
engineered to eliminate hazards as far as practicable and to increase operator safety through protective
guards and labeling. However, some risks may remain even after protective measures have been taken.
They are called residual risks. On this machine, they may include exposure to:
Typical hazards related to towing a trailer on roads and highways
Over speed transportation around corners or rough terrain
Heat, noise, exhaust, and carbon monoxide from the engine
Multiple heat sources: lights, engine, hydraulics
Ultraviolet radiation from the lights
8

Overhead hazards presented by items on location
Fire hazards from improper refueling techniques
Electric shock and arc flash
Diesel Fuel and its fumes
Glare from lights (lights may blind drivers of nearby motor vehicles if the lights are incorrectly
positioned)
To protect yourself and others, make sure you thoroughly read and understand the safety information
presented in this manual before operating the machine
