All,

A friend has just received an MRF (mast raising fixture) from US Towers.
The question is how does it operate. There are no diagrams or manual as
usual from US Towers.

I assume that the fixture bolts to the two holes on the top plate of the
tower, is the cable supposed to go though the same hole as the mast?

If so this would mean that the mast and thrust bearing would have to be
removed so that the cable and cleat could pass through the mast hole and
would stop the use of a thrust bearing, I can't believe this would be true.

Any help with an explanation or photos would be very much appreciated.

Thank you,

Mike, K6BR and K6MCL
