[TowerTalk] pulling guy lines tightly

[STEPHEN L SALA]

I now have two sets of guys wire slightly loose on my new Rohn 45 (70 feet going to 90 feet) and one set on my new Rohn 25 (35 feet going to 105 feet) with the remaining guy sets already made.  In what order do I tighten them?  Since I will have three sets of guys on each tower with a three-hole equalization plate at the end of the guy rod, do you tighten the lower set to 400 lb or so and then the 2nd set and go back and forth?  or do you do them lightly (maybe 200 lb until the final set is up)?  
What happens when I try to tighten the top set at the top of the towers?  For each set, how many iterations do you have to do going around the tower to get the tower vertical going guy wire to guy wire?  What kind of error will I have using a 4 foot level at read plumbness?  Should I use a comealong to pull the wires tightly?
