• Be sure no roof-mounted equipment is

  blocking the satellite “line of sight”, Fig. 3

You will need to decide where the wires will enter the vehicle. A coax and a power wire (minimum 16 gauge) will need to be run into the vehicle.

WARNING: Many +12VDC sources can cause the unit to fail. Select a filtered source, preferably a

dedicated line to the battery.

6.Clean roof area where the base feet will be at- tached to the roof. Do not erase your marks!

7.Put approved sealant in the areas marked

for the base feet. Place base feet on top of the sealant and screw down with the (3) #10 screws (provided) for each foot.

8.After all base feet are secured to roof, put seal- ant around edge of feet and over screws.
