An exclamation mark indicates a potential risk for material damages or economic loss. The text beside it will explain how to avoid the risk.

A light bulb indicates a suggestion of how to solve a specific task more efficiently.

The K-600 hot-dip galvanized solid-rod steel mast is built using 2 m long mast sections and a K-type framework. The mast is climba-ble on all four sides, including the inside and the outside. The K-600 mast system can be erected on a roof, on top of a shelter or on the ground.

Guyed masts erected on the ground can be assembled to a height of approximately 100 - 140 m depending on the wind conditions, icy conditions and installed equipment. The masts can be erected by crane, gin pole or helicopter. Antennas can be attached to the mast before or after the mast has been erected.

Warning! The delivered mast is dimensioned to carry specific equipment and be placed on a specific location. Therefore, it is not permitted to use the mast for other purposes without consulting CUE DEE!

ERECTION USING A CRANE

1. Mount the manhole section to the mast base or the concrete foundation depending on foundation type. Make sure that it is plumb.

2. Wrap two lifting straps around two leg members close to the joining plates of the mast, at the top or at two thirds of the total height of the mast assembly (more than 40 m should not be lifted at one time). Always put the straps as close as possible to the joining plates of two sections.

Proper Sling Attachment Positions

WARNING! THE MAST MUST NOT BE LIFTED BY A LIFTING SLING WHICH IS ONLY WRAPPEDAROUND ONE SINGLE FRAME MEMBER. DOING SO WILL CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE MAST SECTION.

Secure the straps to the two frame members to prevent them from sliding during erection.

Roll the guys together and tape them to the bottom of the mast to prevent them from getting tangled during erection.

When everything is prepared and the hook of the crane is connected to the lifting straps, start by lifting the mast approx-imately 1 m above the ground. Check to make sure that no cables or guys obstruct the lifting of the mast.

Lift the mast into position and secure it to the section already fitted to the base. During the entire lifting procedure the mast should be carefully watched and if anything is obstructing the operation the work should be halted.

While the crane holds the mast in position secure the guys to the anchors.

GROUTINGGrouting of the space between the concrete and the base plates (flanges) of the lowest section is always recommended and neces-sary if the clearance between the concrete and base section exceeds twice the anchor bolt diameter. Grouting can be done when the base section is leveled and tightened but it’s recommended that you erect a number of sections before grouting. Clean all contact surfaces. All surfaces in contact with grout must be free from dirt, oil, grime and other contaminants. If the concrete surface is loose, defective or has laitance, it should be cleaned to a sound base. Prior to placement of grout, thoroughly saturate the concrete surface with cement water. Remove surface water just prior to grout placement.

Place a framework around the foot plate of the base section. The framework should be higher than the distance between the concrete and the foot plate. To achieve an adequate size of the grout, the size of the framework box should be = w+2d, where w is the width of the foot plate and d is the distance between the concrete and the foot-plate. The framework should be well fixed and tight.

Mix the grout in accordance with the instructions given by the grout manufacturer. Use a premixed non-shrink, noncorrosive/ non-metallic cement based product, i.e. SikaGrout-212, Masterflow 520 or equivalent.

Forms may be removed when grout is self-supporting.

For best results, grout should extend downward at a 45° angle from the lower edge of the base-plate as shown in the right-hand figure below. Cut back excessive areas. Keep exposed areas wet for 3 days.

WARNING! THE MAST MUST NOT BE LIFTED BY A LIFTING SLING WHICH IS ONLY WRAPPED AROUND ONE SINGLE FRAME MEMBER. DOING SO WILL CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE MAST SECTION.

ASSEMBLY OF THE K-600 SYSTEMThe procedure described below is intended for erection by using a gin pole. If a crane or helicopter is used, the process is basically the same except that the mast sections can be preassembled prior to lifting. Tighten all bolts to the required torque according to the table on page 6.

Mount the manhole section to the mast base or the concrete foundation depending on foundation type.Make sure that it is plumb.

Erect standard K-600 sections up to the first guy attachment. Place a washer on each side of the section foot plates as shown at (A) in the figure below. Place the nut on the top side to simplify tightening.

Make sure that the sections are turned so that the K-framework forms a ladder.The arrow-like diagonal members shall point upwards.

Do not use iron sledges for hammering galvanized parts of the mast.Hammers of plastic, lead or other soft material should be used.

GUY PLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT

GENERAL The Guys are dimensioned and delivered with the mast.

Please refer to the Mast drawing included in the delivered documentation for proper configuration.

Warning! It is very important that you read and follow the instructions for guy placement and adjustment. An incorrect mounted guy can result in collapsing of the mast.

Accurate adjustment can be measured by using a Theodolite.

•Donotadjustormeasurethemastduringwindspeedgreaterthan5m/satgroundlevelorifthereis ice present on the mast.

•Theinitialtensionsmaydifferduetodifferencesintheelevationsoftheguyanchorsandtwistinthe mast shaft. It is important that the mast is plumb before the guys are tensioned.

GENERAL POSITIONING OF GUY ANCHOR POINTSThe position of the anchor points for the guys is determined by the number of guys per level and the guy radius. A K-600 mast has 4 guys per level which results in a 90° angle between the anchor points. The torsion attachment has 8 guys but because they are con-nected to the anchor points in pairs, the anchor placement is the same.

Example with a Guying Radius of 30 m

View from above

The guying radius can be configured in two ways depending on the ground conditions on the site.

The normal configuration is to have one or two guying radii depending on the mast height. The guys from several guying levels can then share the same guy supports.

The other configuration alternative is to have one guying radius per guying level.

Please refer to the Mast drawing included in the delivered documentation for proper positioning of anchor points.

It is important that the positions of the anchor points are accurate. • If the guying radius is 25 m the anchor position must not differ more than 1 m from the correct position. • If the guying radius is 50 m the anchor position must not differ more than 2 m from the correct position. • If the accuracy is not possible, contact CUE DEE to verify alternative anchor points.

The tables below show the recommended initial pretension of

guys depending on the difference between temperature on the

specific occasion of pretension and the average annual tempera-

ture at the site.

The guy pretension according to the tables will be 13 % of the guy

breaking strength when the site temperature is 20° C lower, and

8 % when the site temperature is 20° C higher than the average

temperature at the site. The steeper the guy, the smaller is the

temperature correction.

ANCHORING THE GUYSAnchoring can be done in bedrock or in soil. For more information about anchoring.

Please refer to the “Soil Anchor” or the “Rock Anchor” part in the Accessories chapter.

GUY TENSIONINGAfter erection, the mast must be adjusted and the guys tensioned.

Apply the tightening torque mentioned on page 6 to the locking screws of the slack puller wedges. Start by tensioning the guys on the

lowest guying level and proceed upwards to the highest guying level.

Note it is important to have equal tension on the wire to the same guy attachment. Difference in guy tension in between guy levels is less important and will always occur due to different shrinkage for dif- ferent wire heigths.

TOLERANCES

The final position of the centre line of the mast should all lie within a vertical cone with its apex at the mast base and with a radius of 1/1500 of the height above the mast base.

The resultant horizontal component of the initial guy tensions of all the guys at a given level should not exceed 5% of the average hori-zontal component of the initial guy tension for that level.

The initial tension in any individual guy at a level should in no case vary more than 10 % from the design value.

Maximum initial deflection of the mast column between two guy levels, where L is the distance between the guy levels in question, should be L/1000. After erection the tolerance on the alignment of 3 consecutive guy connections on the shaft is limited to (L1 + L2)/2000, where L1 and L2 are the lengths of the two consecutive spans of the shaft.

MAST BASE

ARTICLE NR: 5162, CD 431153 To mount the mast on bedrock a mast base is required.

ACCESSORIES

Bedrock mounting

Remove loose material from bedrock.

Drill 4 holes Ø50 mm in square spaced 750 mm to approx-

imately 800 mm depth. Use mast base as a drilling template.

Clear the holes thoroughly from water, drilling residues and

contaminations.

Use a premixed non-shrink, non-corrosive/non-metallic

cement based product, i.e. SikaGrout-212, Masterflow 520 or

equivalent. Mix it in accordance with the instructions given by

the manufacturer.

Fill the holes with the mixture (grout) and insert the M27 an-

chor bolts. Anchor bolts should extend approximately 300mm

above ground.

base and keep it mounted during hardening to fix the rods´

position.

When the grout is hardened attach the first mast section and

adjust it plumb.

If the distance D from the bedrock to the mast base exceeds

two times the bolt diameter, apply grout between the bedrock

and the mast base, see page 12 for grouting instructions.

CLIMBING BARRIER

ARTICLE NR: 1583When the climbing barrier is open it is possible to climb past the barrier on both in and outside of the mast.

The Climbing Barrier consists of two parts and four U-bolts:

• Door (1)

• Side Barriers (2)

• U-bolts (3)

Climbing barrier for K-600Door closed

Climbing barrier for K-600Door open

Begin by determining the height you wish to fit the climbing barrier on. It must however be positioned in level with a horizontal

member of the mast.

Fit the 3-side barrier (2) to the mast with its vertical rods leaning along the mast´s vertical members. Use four U-bolts (3) to

mount the side barrier as shown in the figure above. Tighten the Ubolts to 22 Nm.

Place the door with its hooks on the horizontal member of the mast on the same level as the rest of the climbing barrier.

The door should be resting on the opposite horizontal member when closed.

When the climbing barrier is aligned and the door can be opened without any problems, damage the threads of the Ubolts at the

nut by using a centre punch. This prevents unauthorized persons from breaching through the climbing barrier.

To lock the barrier, use a padlock large enough to reach across the climbing barrier door and the horizontal member of the mast.

To open the door, pull it backwards toward the hooks and lower it to a vertical position or remove it completely while accessing the mast.

The mast can then be climbed on the inside and the outside.
