HOW IT WORKS
When U wind the handle the middle ally section is lifed, that in turn lifts the
inner wooden section as well. So the 3m pole soon becomes 8m!
It consists of a 1.25" dia 10ft wooden pole inside an ally 1.5" dia tube inside
a 2" steel tube. The wooden pole has a V shaped slot cut in it down one side
for the flexible pull up bicycle brake cable wire. The Aluminium & Steel poles
have a slot for small pulley wheels at the top of each, supported by a thick
steel strap around the pole to hold the axle (bolt).
Near the bottom of the wooden pole (35cm) is attached to a steel cable that
runs over a pulley on the top of the ally pole & fixed to the steel pole
(winding hand shaft).
Another flexible steel wire attaches on the same side as its pulley, to the
inside bottom (slots made for a loop) of the ally tube & threaded though a hole
(35cm up) & goes over a pulley wheel on the top of the steel tube, then on to a
winding wheel & ratchet!

When the mast is fully up the 2 wire attachment points will be opposite the
pulleys resisting pole section rotation at the overlaps.
IN USE
Put aerial & coax on to wooden pole with clamps. Pop the pole vertical, attach
to X bracket (bungee), then wind the handle. Use the bungee tension to stop
the mast for turning! Keep the bottom position on the ground to keep vertical.
Depending on conditions bottom can be left on the ground or a bearing plate
pegged in. Drive over ones seem a good idea but U need to be able to reposition
it to make the mast vertical.
It is generaly wise to have cables well secured tp the top section, so that
there is something to pull down with of it does not telescope shut smoothly!
In public areas I guy the mast with 4 guy strings for safety as well!
Also used with it is a 12V rotator that the mast sit on. It is a low torque
easily stalled rotator so of anying fouls up, it does no damage!
See my "Vehicle Gutter /P Mast Support" bul.
Why Don't U send an interesting bul?
