WARNING:
Tilted alignment is not suitable for environments where the antenna is
subject to high wind conditions.
3. Place the U-bolt(s) around the mast as pictured in Figure F-3 on page F-4.
4. Slide the mast clamps over the U-bolts as pictured in Figure F-3 on
page F-4.
5. Finally slide the “L”-Bracket over the U-bolts, and fasten the grid antenna to
the U-bolts using the lock washers and nuts.
For tilted elevation mounting, use the flat plate washer on the adjustable tilt
slot to mount and secure the antenna to the desired elevation angle.
6. Proceed with “Connecting the Antenna Cable” on page 4-6 to connect the
antenna to the indoor equipment and seal the antenna connectors.
