Endurance Engineer David Laino shares his experience installing a Wind Turbine in Wisconsin…
The David Jolly installation went well, with just one minor hiccup and all in all it was a smooth operation.
David and Deb Jolly were superior hosts. They treated me as an old friend, providing excellent accommodations and food. The property is fantastic, right off the highway exit, very rural, in a beautiful landscape with ponds and fields and a red barn too. David may decide to install another turbine soon.
The work days were long, but Dave and his friend Bob were tireless workers. Tower work is by far the larger assembly project. Efforts to measure the guy wires to reduce adjustments seemed to help. Once the tower was finished, turbine assembly was a snap, less than four hours total. I even managed to get the new isolation washers and bushings on in record time putting them on the studs prior to mounting the turbine. This is my new recommended technique, and we may even wish to ship new turbines with a set of washers and the bushings on the studs already. The Endurance Wind Turbine is now in service.

Here’s David Jolly’s reaction after the installation:
Just finished the install. It was great to have David Laino here. I contacted
two local tv stations and they both came to the install and did a story.
The interest from the media and other people is amazing in Wisconsin.
