Is it a 3 section tower? Mine was in pretty rough shape when I got it too, but once its apart, you can see how it works. Not real complicated. You remove the "collars" at the top of each section to seperate the tubes. Just keep track of the routing of the cables. I put an ATV winch on mine, and it has worked out pretty good. Never could find any good info about them on the net, though you may want to check US towers, as they still sell a few models. |
