a mast assembly extending upward from the base module;
a light assembly coupled to the mast assembly and configured to emit light; and
a leg assembly coupled to the base module for movement between a stowed position and a deployed position, the leg assembly including
a track coupled to the base module,
a leg beam extending between a first beam end and a second beam end, the first beam end being mounted to the track for translation along the track and rotation with respect to the track, and
an adjustment mechanism for translating the leg beam with respect to the track after the leg assembly is in the deployed position;
wherein the leg assembly also includes a strut extending between a first strut end, slidably and pivotally coupled to the track, and a second strut end, pivotally coupled to the leg beam between the first beam end and the second beam end.
