Installation Requirements

Hardware Installation

IMPORTANT: Handle the Dish Reflector with care. Deformations in its shape may reduce the antenna’s effectiveness.

  1. Note: Ensure that the antenna feed slot of the Mounting Bracket lines up with the antenna feed slot of the Dish Reflector, as shown:

  2. IMPORTANT: The Dish Reflector and Antenna Feed are keyed so the Antenna Feed can only be installed in a single orientation.

    Note: Ensure that the straight edge of the Antenna Feed end (as shown) and arrow on the Antenna Feed cap are pointing straight up.

  3. Note: Hand-tighten until the knob touches the surface of the Mounting Bracket. Then use a wrench or channel lock pliers to tighten the knob an additional ¼ turn. Do NOT over-tighten the knob.

    Note: Ensure that the Antenna Feed is securely attached by the knob.

    IMPORTANT: Do not handle the antenna by the Antenna Feed once the feed is connected.

  4. Note: Ensure that each Lock Washer is always installed between the Hex Head Bolt and Flat Washer.

  5. Note: Ensure that the degree settings are facing outward and are the same on both arms of the Upper Pole Bracket.

  6. IMPORTANT: Before adjusting the tilt angle, ensure that the six Hex Head Bolts are loose enough to allow movement. If you cannot spin the washers freely by hand, then loosen the Hex Head Bolts until you can.
