Installation Precautions
For ease of installation, and to ensure your own safety during installation, note the following:
• Review the Safety Precautions provided in the Introduction chapter.
• Review all requirements outlined in this chapter.
• Familiarize yourself with the antenna and the antenna- and radio-specific mounting instructions prior to climbing any
roof or ladder.
• Verify that you have arranged all safety measures for outdoor installation or rooftop installation.
• Test all equipment before beginning the actual rooftop installation to determine whether all required equipment and
items are available and functioning properly. To verify the equipment prior to installation, you may first need to follow
the guidelines as described in the documentation that comes with the radio unit.
• Install the grounding system for the antenna mast, radio hardware, and surge arrestor before connecting the cable
from the radio to the surge arrestor. This protects your system against lightning strikes during installation.
