Introduction
Safety precautions
In addition to the safety instructions on page 3, follow these guidelines when
installing the booster antenna.
Carefully survey the job site before beginning the installation to locate secure
handholds, dangerous conditions (such as power lines and weak roofs), and
the safest and most convenient placements for ladders.
Do not climb on a wet or icy roof.
Do not attempt high installations on windy days.
Use only the sturdiest commercial-grade ladders—those with wide, slip-
preventative rungs and bases.
Do not position ladders at an angle steeper than 70
o
. Steeper angles can
cause a ladder to slip sideways.
Dig the base of the ladder into the ground if possible.
Do not place ladders on slate that is wet or hot.
Wear rubber-soled, low-heeled shoes or boots.
Wear a pair of durable but flexible protective gloves whenever they won’t
interfere with the installation process.
Perform as many installation steps as possible on the ground.
WARNING:
The installer must keep a minimum distance of 20 cm
(8 inches) from the antenna. The installation should be made to insure a minimum
of 20 cm separation from all persons that may come in close proximity to the
antenna.
WARNING:
The booster antenna must not be used indoors. It must be
mounted on an outdoor permanent structure.
