Lighting Tower - Stability
The Hylite mobile lighting tower is fitted with an integral stabilising, jacking and telescoping jockey wheel, which is terrain adjustable. Outriggers are fitted front and rear with screw jacks which are retractable when not in use. Even with the outriggers extended the Hylite's 'footprint' is compact and very sturdy even in adverse wind conditions.
Lighting Tower - Lighting
The lamp section is universally mounted to allow for multi - directional placeing. The lamps can rotate 360 degrees via a control panel switch. The standard Hylite mobile lighting tower comes with tungsten halogen lamp bulbs but other options are available including, metal halide and high pressure sodium lamps.
Lighting Tower - Trailer
The Hylite's 'Gullwing' manufactured design of the trailer allows easy access servicing and secure storage space for lights. The monocoque shell is fabricated from steel plate section, which is welded, treated for corrosion and powder based paint coated. The standard yellow colour can be adopted if required, or your own company colour can be used if required. The Hylite mobile floodlighting tower can be towed up to high speeds due to the torsion axles which allow the pneumatically tyred wheels to be joined. The braking system employed involves drum brakes, if needed a straight, cranked or adjustable towbar can be provided.
Lighting Tower - Engine / Generators

In addition customers have the choice of Perkins, Lombardini, Deutz, Hatz, with Markon or Newage generators which can be supplied.
Lighting Tower - Power and Power Cord
Secondary appliances can be used by means of output sockets allowing power offtake. The power cord to the lights is sleeved and self-retracting, preventing tangling and breaking. The lights and the power sockets are each protected by circuit breakers and a residual current circuit breaker is fitted as standard. UK and US machines are supplied with 110 volts throughout. Machines to all other markets can be supplied with 240V (single or three phase), 380V and 415V.
