GloBug Lighting Systems referenced in this manual. Failure to read this manual could cause damage to the equipment and serious bodily injury to the operator.
Tripod Deployment (GB12BW)
1. Place the tripod on a firm level surface so that it will not slide or turn over. Make sure there is enough space around the unit for the tripod legs to be deployed.
2. Remove tripod from its carrying case. The tripod legs are secured by a black velcro strap (Figure 8). Squeeze both tabs on each side of buckle to unlock strap and allow tripod legs (Figure 9) to be deployed.

3. Next, pull upward on the mast and let the tripod legs deploy. Once the tripod legs have been fully deployed make sure the legs are locked by securing the latch.
The latch (Figure 10) has two positions, upper and lower.
Placing the latch in the upper position will provide 1 ft. (
305 mm) more height.

Raising the Mast (GB12BW)
1. Before raising the mast, make sure the upper T-handle bolt lock (Figure 16) is securely tightened. This will prevent the balloon/lamp assembly from falling off. In addition make sure that the lamp power cable is connected to the mating end of the 15 ft (4.5 meters) power source cable.
DANGER - Overhead Obstructions

3. Raise mast to desired height and tighten lower T-handle
(Figure 16) securely.
ALWAYS make sure the area above the lighting system is open and clear of overhead power lines and other obstructions. The mast extends in excess of 13 ft. (4 meters) when an optional exrension is used. Contact with overhead power lines or other obstructions could result in equipment damage,
Serious Injury or Death!
CAUTION - MAST PINCH POINT
When raising or lowering the mast, keep hands and fingers clear of the various mast sections. This will prevent hands and fingers from getting pinched.
DANGER - HIGH VOLTAGE POWER LINES
When raising mast, ALWAYS be on the lookout for overhead obstructions such as high voltage power lines. The possibility exists of electrocution, even death! if the lighting system comes in contact with
high voltage power lines.
