Winegard RP-SK95 instruction manual Raising the Antenna, Removing the LNB Assembly

Raising the Antenna

1Press and hold “POWER” for two seconds to turn on the interface box. Wait until the interface box finishes “connecting to antenna.” The TRAV’LER® antenna may enter the search routine after ten seconds.

Pay attention to the pinch points as the antenna raises!

2Wait until the antenna has at least raised to a position in which the LNB arm is parallel to the roof. Then, press “POWER” and “SELECT” at the same time. The antenna should stop moving.

3Unplug the interface box.

Removing the LNB Assembly

1Remove the four reflector nuts and bolts with a ½″ wrench, and remove the reflector. Set the reflector, reflector nuts, and reflector bolts aside; you will need these later.

2Disconnect the coaxial cable from port C on the top of the turret.

4If there is not already a line marking the top of the stiffener plate, draw a line on the stiffener plate to mark the top of the plate.

5Using a ½″ wrench, loosen and remove the four bolts holding the reflector bracket and stiffener plate to the skew housing. At the same time, carefully remove the stiffener plate and LNB arm assembly. Set aside the stiffener plate and four bolts; you will need these later.

Note: as the antenna raises and turns, the adapter plate may become skewed, and the fourth hole may not be directly at the bottom of the plate. If unsure of the fourth hole, remove the four screws from the center of the adapter plate; a small post is located directly above the fourth hole.
