My question is if it is safe to stand the tower up vertically with the bolts in the third holes up rather than the bottom holes?  Once I get the tower up vertically I can put the bolts in the bottom holes at that point as instructed in the manual.  I would think that having the bolts up higher would not increase the pressure on the winch?  Maybe even decrease it?Thanks,BradW5BK 		 	   		

I am looking at the base of my HDX-555 and am thinking that, with the 
tower pivoting at the third bolt up, the protrusion at the rear *might* 
collide with the bottom of the raising fixture as the tower gets close 
to vertical.
