[TowerTalk] Crank up tower on its side

[Bill Ogden]

I have a TX-455 that I am finally getting ready to use (after almost two
years of distractions).

Silly question: Can I crank it up while it is laying on its side (on a
sawhorse under the end of the bottom section, not completely on the
ground).  It seems this way would be easier for cable lubrication, zinc
patching, etc.  I thought about tying a rope to the bottom of the two
"crank up" sections to help pull them down.

There are a few surface rust spots.  I assume it is best to scrub and spray
the spots (with a zinc spray) as soon as possible.
