I do not trust the short bolts stuck into the concrete. I used 9" all thread into a base then, I welded them to another plate which I buried 6" below the concrete surface. The threads stick out 2-3 inches above the concrete and I double nutted the mast -one above and one below so that I could LEVEL the mast. THis is how street light poles are done in this area, I have no issues with my mast moving!! ENJOY.

@woodyw6933 I am with you on this. It is a ridiculous way to do it. He obviously is not that great with construction.

Great video. The the video link in the qr code does not work so I found this super useful. Thank you for the step by step instructions. Very easy to understand.

I have added tennis balls to the struts at the end of the panels to protect my head, they protrude and are sharp. I also used the white triangles that the panels were shipped with to glue to the corners of the panels so that you cant hit the corners of the panels. They are at head height and moving up and down now and then, baby proofing the array only saves you a trip to the ER. I found that the E W actuator had to be reversed to work correctly and the solar sensor had to have the cable come out the SOUTHERN side of the array, in contrast to the video, just saying. My controller is mounted to horizontal to read it easily inside a gasketed box, to avoid any weather issues and allow easy setting and reading, enjoy Woody N4MQ

The battery powering the tracker needs its own panel to charge it correct?

Hello, do you have the dimensions of parts A, B, C and D? Thank you so much. Superb videos

👌 Hello ! Thank you for this interesting video. Please a few questions: What maximum weight can this tracker support? And can I install on this support 2 or 3 photovoltaic panels each measuring 2000 x 1150 mm for 27 kgs (i.e. 78.74 x 45.27 inches for 59.52 lbs)? Just a note: wouldn't it be a good idea to place the cylinder motor at the top to prevent rainwater from seeping in? Many thanks again! 👍 Best regards Daniel from France

So i got one of these, but the top mouts are just TO SMALL for my 6 panels... I was only able to fit 3 =(

@mustafabyalk8368 5 ай бұрын

The short actuator must be mounted on South side (p.11 in the manual).

I suggest that all the panels be mounter BEFORE installing the sunlight sensor. One less thing in your way. MOUNT ACTUATORS WITH THE MOTOR ON TOP, WATER GETS PAST THE SEAL OTHERWISE. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PREVIOUS FAILURES DUE TO WATER. i HAD ALSO TRIED DRILLING WEEP HOLES AND THAT DID NOT ASSIST THE ISSUE. wOODY

@chrisheberling2831 2 ай бұрын

Please correct me if I'm wrong but I think you are installing part B incorrectly. The actuator needs to be on the south side.

@TaddyDigest 2 ай бұрын

yes that is correct

Thank you so much! Eco worthy’s video is trash (they tried) had this in a box in the barn at my off grid property and weather finally good enough to start.

I’ve got it pretty much assembled but one major question… for the life of me I can’t seem to figure this out. Should the main post stickers be facing the direction or away? Like mine is oriented so that the sticker that says south is pointing south. So the south sticker is behind me looking south. Does that make sense? Or should I be reading the compass looking through the post.

@TaddyDigest 3 ай бұрын

Once you get it all together, you will know the right direction The south should face south I had to swap mine around

@prestigevending15 3 ай бұрын

Perfect I think mines right! Wish I could attach a pic to my comment. I drilled my expansion bolts so if I did need to switch it wouldn’t be devastating.
