Fitting the open array to the pedestal

CAUTION:

The pedestal unit has a cap fitted over the open array mounting shaft to protect the protuding co-axial pin. This cap must be left in place until the open array is fitted to the pedestal.

1.Remove the cap from the open array shaft. Retain the cap, it will be required if the open array is removed from the pedestal.

2.Grease the four securing studs.

CAUTION:

If the pin is damaged during the following operation you should contact your service dealer.

3.Lift the open array into position. Carefully lower the array - to pre- vent damage to the mounting pin, ensure the array remains paral- lel to the pedestal so that the studs slot into the holes on the pedestal mounting bracket.

Note: The open array mounting bracket is designed so that the array can only be fitted to the pedestal in the correct orientation.

4.Use the four nuts and associated washers supplied to secure the array to the pedestal as shown in the diagram below.
