Figure 57, RCA (D915) Chimney Mount Kit
To mount the dish on achimney requiresthe use of the chimney mount kit (RCA model
number D915) and the foot and mast assembly included with the dish. The chimney
mount kit includes a bracket, straps (2EA), eye bolts (2EA.), clamps (2 EA), and bolts
(4 EA.). Confirm the presence of these pieces before starting the installation.
CAUTIONI
Only use the chimney mount on structurally sound chim-
neys. Unstable chimneys can be damaged easily by the
vibrations placed on them from the dish.
When mounting the dish on a chimney, make every attempt to keep it out of the soot
and smoke coming out of the chimney. The chemicals in this smoke may prematurely
corrode the dish reducing its life. To reduce the amount of smoke striking the dish,
position it below the top of the chimney. Also, if possible, position the dish on the
prevailing wind side of the chimney.
