Installation Environment
CAUTION!
• DO all installations in a clean, dry, and properly prepared
environment. Temperature should be maintained above 32°F for a
minimum of 30 minutes before and after installation!
• DO NOT attempt to install the Remote Antenna in the rain or fog, or if
signs of snow, ice or condensation are evident on the trailer roof. It is
extremely important that the mounting surface be clean and dry prior
to installing the unit.
Installation of the Remote Antenna
1. Measure and mark the location for the Remote Antenna assembly. This
will be 12 to 15 inches from the nose of the trailer and about 2 inches in
front of the first roof bow. The antenna mounting location is 30 to 36
inches from the road side edge of the trailer roof. Typical locations for
various trailer manufacturers are as follows:
Great Dane = 12 inches from the nose and 32 inches from the road side
Vanguard = 15 inches from the nose and 35 inches from the road side
Hyundai = 12 inches from the nose and 32 inches from the road side
The mounting location should be relatively flat allowing the base of the
antenna to contact the trailer roof completely.
Confirm all clearances and ensure that there are no roof
bows or obstructions in the penetration location before
drilling the hole in the roof!
2. Drill the 7/16 inch diameter hole for the Antenna cable penetration. Clean
and de-burr the hole.
