Abstract: |
A telescopic mast has a top mounting assembly which plugs into the top cylinder of the mast and presents an upwardly projecting threaded stud. A platform unit is seated on the mounting assembly and includes a wing nut which is screwed onto the stud and can be turned independently of the rest of the platform unit. The nut is exposed in a recess at the top of the platform unit for access to permit manual turning.
