The surveillance trailer is a powerful tool designed for remote security monitoring, offering flexibility and ease of deployment. This guide provides a step-by-step walkthrough for setting up and operating your trailer, ensuring optimal performance and safety.

1. Trailer Setup

• Ground Positioning: Place the trailer on firm, level ground to simplify leveling the tower. Apply the hand brake and block the wheels to prevent movement.
• Grounding: Attach a proper earthen ground to the grounding stud at the mast's base.
• Jockey Wheel Adjustment: Rotate the jockey wheel 90° until the spring-loaded pin locks it in place. Use the jack handle to lift the trailer drawbar from the towing vehicle.
• Outriggers: Extend all four outriggers until their locking pins secure them. Adjust each jack handle clockwise to level the trailer, ensuring stability.

2. Raising the Tower

Using the Electric Winch

• Pre-checks: Inspect mast ropes for wear and ensure they are properly aligned in the pulleys. Check the mast’s electrical cord for damage.
• Operation: Ensure the steel ropes on the winch are tight. Press the "Extend" button on the controller to lift the mast. The system's limit switch will stop the winch when maximum height is reached. Insert the locking pin to secure the mast.

Using the Manual Winch

• Preparation: Install any top-mounted devices and adjust them as needed. Inspect ropes and electrical cords for damage or misalignment.
• Operation: Tighten the steel ropes. Crank the winch clockwise to extend the mast. Insert the safety locking pin when the mast reaches the desired or maximum height. If any slack develops or sections get stuck, stop immediately and contact an authorized service center.

3. Lowering the Mast

With the Optional Hydraulic System

• Pre-checks: Inspect the oil tank, valve blocks, hydraulic cylinder, hoses, and joints for leaks. Ensure adequate hydraulic oil levels.
• Operation: Press the "Lower" button on the hydraulic system controller to return the mast to its original height.

4. Installing Equipment

Once the tower is raised, you can mount the necessary equipment, such as:

• Mounting Boxes: Secure electronic components and protective enclosures.
• Cameras: Attach security cameras to the top of the mast for surveillance purposes.
• Electrical Parts: Ensure all components are securely connected and operational.

Safety Tips

1. Always inspect all mechanical and electrical parts before operation.
2. Use appropriate safety gear and adhere to operational guidelines.
3. Contact professional service if any issues arise during operation.

By following these steps, you can ensure that your surveillance trailer is set up and operated safely and effectively, providing reliable security monitoring for various applications.
