Engineered for Sport
The Quad Pod K65 has been engineered specifically for professional sports lighting applications, combining fast deployment, controlled light distribution and practical on-site mobility.
One person deployment system
Pre-aimed ‘beam controlled’ light heads
Low center of gravity for safe handling on site
Removable wheel kits
SAFETY & OPERATOR FEATURES
Designed with integrated safety systems and operator-focused controls to support safe deployment, transportation and day-to-day operation.
Operator level RCBO electrical safety isolation switch
No need to lower mast to turn luminaries on and off. Instant power off should an electrical problem occur
Integrated manual winch with automatic safety brake
The slack rope safety system automatically detects when the winch rope is not correctly tensioned and prevents the user from continuing to operate the winch in the mast lowering direction.
Automatic mast safety interlock system
Market leading, double pin safety locking system ensures that the mast is automatically and safely mechanically locked in all positions when raising the mast. This system also acts as a “dead man’s handle” for safe lowering of the mast.
Unique parallel mast design
Allows the mast sections to slide past each other and the light head assembly to be fully retracted and stowed at the base of the unit. The center of gravity is very low with the weight perfectly balanced over the wheels for easy and safe handling even on difficult terrain.
Fork lift pockets and tie down points
For safe and fast handling, loading and unloading.
Automatic mast safety and stowage lock
Helps prevent mast from being raised until legs are deployed and secures mast for transport
ADDITIONAL ENGINEERING FEATURES
Purpose-designed engineering features developed to improve stability, transportability and practical use across sports facilities and training environments.
Low pressure footprint
Low pressure footprint with non-marking base. Optimum stability with minimum ground impact. Ideal for deployment on impressionable ground surfaces.
Built in level gauge
Reduces set-up time and allows the operator to ensure that the mast is setup correctly and safely.
Low pressure wheel / tyres
Designed for easy 1 person maneuverability on and off the sports field without damage to the playing surface. Quick release wheel kit can be removed in seconds and stored remotely for additional security.
Independently adjustable legs
Rapid to deploy, Independently adjustable legs. Designed to enable maximum stability on all playing surfaces.
