LIGHT TOWER

摘要

This invention concerns a light tower (10) having a main body (12) and a mast (26) extending from the main body (12) such that the mast (26) is extendable between a retracted configuration and at least one extended configuration. A lighting unit (34) is mounted to the mast (26). Supports (44), such as legs, are arranged to support the main body in use. Sensors (56) are provided for monitoring the load distribution of the light tower (10) between the supports (44). A controller (64) is configured to alter the load distribution of the light tower (10) according to a comparison between the monitored load distribution and a predetermined acceptable load distribution range.
