3 ASSEMBLING A TOP POLE ODU
The top pole ODU has an elevation bracket that allows it to be mounted on the top of a pole or a
tri mast assembly. Figure 3-1 shows the hardware included with a top pole ODU assembly.
3.1 Unpacking the Antenna
Remove the antenna dish and set it aside while still in its protective shipping material. Do not
remove the dish until ready to install it.
Caution Do not rest the dish on its side or lay it flat if removed from shipping material!
3.2 Antenna Assembly
Complete the antenna assembly on the ground, before mounting it on the Mounting pole. This
assembly has seven steps.
Step 1: Adjustments for Antenna Assembly
At this point the elevation setting should be pre-set as per the Work Order# to the approximate
value. In order to do this, ensure the elevation lock down nuts are loosened, and then manually
adjust the elevation setting to the relevant position.
When the coarse elevation adjustment is complete, tighten the elevation lock down nuts. This
will secure the setting while the antenna is assembled.
