Don't the two bearings that you have installed hold the weight of the mast 
leaving no vertical load on the rotator?

Hello T-T'ers,

A long time ago, HyGain (Telex / HyGain) used to put a
specification for allowable vertical loads in their manuals.
I was wondering about the maximum vertical load for a
Tailtwister rotator.

I have 2 thrust bearings in the tower & mast system, so
side loading is not a problem. Thanks for any help!
