The tower is constructed of square steel tubing with a lower section 4.5 feet in length and 3 inch by 3 inch by 1/8 inch thick, and an upper section 4.75 feet in length and 2 inch by 2 inch by 1/8 inch think. Each section has 1 foot of overlap. The mast is elevated using an included 1,000 lbs hand winch with 3/16 inch cable and extended to its full height using a second 1,000 lbs winch. The LM series of towers are powder coated with a glossy blue finish for corrosion resistances and an aesthetic appearance. These light masts are typically mounted to trailers or other stable surfaces via a 15 inch by 13 inch, 1/4 inch thick mounting base-plate which has been drilled to accept six 3/4 inch anchor bolts. A 36 inch wide and 1/4 inch thick mounting plate is attached to the upper section of the mast which provides a strong and stable platform for the equipment being elevated.
