Dam that needing some hydraulic pressure.

You could trap someone in there!

Электро-гидравлическая система мачты ... отлично придумали ...

[mingosuzuki]

maybe...

[rock3tcat]

I can't imagine how much force that hydraulic jack has to produce since it's positioned so close to the pivoting point. Double U-O-Double U

[dane774]

@rock3tcat Just think of the ripping force on the pivot point on the bolt or hinge.

Not alone with the weight of everything on it..WOW..

[Croppcircles]

What would be a good price to pay for this ?

Are you connected to the grid ? Any cash back ?

[djpickle68]

This is unique...

I have put my hands on more than a few back yard wind turbine and I have never seen hydraulics used to erect a tower before....

Different and interesting.....OVERCOMPLICATE­D but interesting none the less.

I think you guys forgot about the "not in my backyard" concept.

[mingosuzuki]

not in the backyard concept???? I was thinking of maybe placing it on the road but thre road is a little too narrow for this one. I saw your videos... very nice. You must be a naturerist. Don't worry i only killed 65 birds and counting... I'm a good shooter.

[DRNEGOLICIS]

LOL!

If the hydraulics can't lift the tower with the turbine mounted, what;s the point? You still need a crane to attach the turbine.

[mingosuzuki]

Wunderdogg, this video is a test of the hydraulics before we put the head on. you don't need a crane to install the turbine. You simply put the turbine in the back of a pick up truck, drive it to the end of the tower and simply Bolt on the head flange to the tower flange and then simply raise the tower!!! That's it, and then you can raise and lower it anytime you want.

@mingosuzuki ropes pulley block & a gin pole would be more efficient in the long haul hydraulics just complicate and add too mulch cost.

[Darshils]

What hydraulic unit have u used? as in what force can it produce to lift the tower.. is this a 20 m tower? what roller bearings did u use in the hydraulic unit attachment to the tower? thanks

[odmcarp]

it's a double pump holly, twin turbo telescoping hemi-cylinders, with solid static-electric actuators, fueled by a mixture of nitro and a top secret fuel ignitor to monitor lifting speed, and the bearings are triple sealed. any other questions?

[mingosuzuki]

LOL. It is a twin telescoping Cylinders, Nitro? Top secret fuel? NO... none of that. This is a 52 foot tower there is no roller bearings... just a shaft.

[Dummerd]

I am curious of the windload capability of this tower. Base looks near 30" around. Can you measure the sections and tell us what they are?

[freespeachrulez]

Hey you forgot to put the turbine on!!

[mingosuzuki]

check my other videos, its on!!!

[sef789]

How much concrete is in that piling?

[mingosuzuki]

2o cubic meters
