NOTE
To correct orient the feed refer to the feed installation
drawings. With linear feeds it is necessary to orient the
feed such that the vertical elements are positioned near the
center of the polarization drive. For circular feeds it is only
necessary to orient the feed so that waveguide ports can be
easily connected to the system waveguides without
excessive bending.
2.4.9.2 Installation of Subreflector to Subreflector Mounting Frame
The subreflector adjustment nuts was taped and the subreflector was
removed from the mounting frame. (Refer to step 9 of the subreflector
alignment procedure on page 2-20.) Reattach subreflector to mounting frame
with 3/4-10 nuts and washers as shown in Figure 2-1. Tighten 3/4-10
stainless steel nuts to 130 ft-lb [176 Nm].
2.4.9.3 Transformer Installation Inside Hub
A step down transformer must be installed inside the reflector hub when
using 3-phase electrical power other than 208V ac. Refer to Transformer
