QUADPOD ASSEMBLY
The quadpod assembly consists of 3 parts:
1. Light head
2. Pole w/Legs
3. Wheel base
To assemble quadpod, begin by placing the legs over the wheel base. Tighten bolt to secure the
wheels. The quadpod can now be rolled around on its wheels. Ensure the legs are folded up before
tilting quadpod to maneuver.
WARNING: Use caution before tilting quadpod with a heavy load. For heavy loads, it is
recommended to remove the light head prior to transporting via wheel base! Failure to do so may
cause serious injury or death. Larson Electronics shall not be held liable for injuries caused by
misuse.
1. Place tower in desired location that is flat and able to support the quadpod without falling over.
2. Loosen hand screw and lower legs until firmly stabilizing quadpod.
3. Tighten hand screw to secure legs.
4. With help, place the light head over top pole and tighten hand screw.
Light weight lamps can be attached by tilting quadpod toward the ground with the legs up. Attach light
head to pole, tighten hand screw and tilt back to its vertical position. DO NOT tilt quadpod while
extended to max height. It is recommended to have another person hold the quadpod while tilting
vertically.

For heavy weight lamps, use a ladder and extra help for attaching light head to pole.
Double check that all hand screws are tight before continuing use of the light tower.
EXTENDING
1. Loosen hand screw for extending the light head. Once loose, extend light head until desired
height is achieved with at least 1ft - 2ft remaining inside pole for support.
WARNING: DO NOT over extend light head completely allowing extension pole to free from base! If
the light head becomes free, serious injury or death can occur. Larson Electronics shall not be held
liable for injuries caused by misuse.
2. When desired height is achieved, tighten hand screw to secure light head.
LOWERING
1. To lower mast, grasp light head and slowly loosen hand screw. Lower the light head and
tighten hand screw.
WARNING: DO NOT loosen hand screw allowing light head to fall freely. This can damage the unit
and cause serious injury or death. Always grasp light head before lowering. Larson Electronics shall
not be held liable for injuries caused by misuse.
The quadpod mount light tower can be disassembled for storage or transporting. Unplug light from
power source and remove light head following previous steps for attaching.
Once the light head has been removed, loosen hand screw for legs and fold them up. Wheel to
desired location or remove from wheel base for complete disassembly.
THE LENS AND CORD MUST BE ROUTINELY CHECKED FOR CUTS, BREAKS, SCRATCHES OR ANY
SEVERE ABRASIONS, AND IF ANY ARE FOUND, THE PARTS MUST BE REPLACED BEFORE
RESUMING USE OF THE LIGHT TOWER.
BULB INSTALLATION AND REPLACEMENT (DO NOT TOUCH BULB WITH BARE HANDS)
1. Turn the light off and unplug from the power source.
2. Allow the fixture to fully cool before proceeding.
3. Always wear gloves or use a clean cloth to handle bulb. The natural oil from skin will leave a residue that
will cause the light to burn out immediately.
4. To remove the lens cover, remove the retaining screw on the back of the lens cover. The lens cover will
then swing open exposing the bulb.
5. To remove the bulb, grip one end of the bulb and gently push towards the other end and pull outward to
release the bulb.
6. Using a clean cloth or wearing gloves to hold the bulb, gently insert one end of the bulb into the receptacle
and press firmly into place. Place the other end of the bulb into the opposite receptacle and gently press
into place. Make sure bulb is seated properly.
7. Close the lens cover and replace the retaining screw.
8. Do not test light without lens cover properly attached.

MAINTENANCE
Caution: To avoid personal injury, disconnect power to the light and allow the unit to cool
down before performing maintenance.
Warning: No user serviceable parts inside of fixture. Risk of electric shock. Removal of the lens
will void the warranty.
1. Perform visual, mechanical and electrical inspections on a regular basis. We recommend
routine checks to be made on a yearly basis. Frequency of use and environment should
determine this. It is recommended to follow an Electrical Preventive Maintenance Program
as described in NFPA 70B: Recommended practice for Electrical Equipment.
2. The lens should be cleaned periodically as needed to ensure continued photometric
performance. Clean the lens with a damp, non-abrasive, lint-free cloth. If not sufficient, use
mild soap or a liquid cleaner.
3. Inspect the cooking fins on the luminaire to ensure that they are free of any obstructions
or contamination (i.e. excessive dust build-up). Clean with a non-abrasive cloth if
needed.
4. Do not operate if the lens is cracked or damaged. All fasteners should be properly seated.
