Important installation information

Outdoor antennas should be grounded with an approved lighting arrest- ing device. Local codes may apply. Use 8 AWG or larger ground wire. Height or other restrictions on antennas may apply to your installa- tion depending on your proximity to an airport, or local ordinances. Take the time to plan your installation procedure. Do all assembly work on the antenna on the ground. Raise the completed antenna after assembly.

Do NOT work on a wet, snowy or windy day or if a thunderstorm is approaching. Do NOT use a metal ladder.

If the antenna assembly starts to fall, get away from it and let it fall. Remember that the antenna mast and cable are all excellent conduc- tors of electrical current.

Do NOT install the antenna by yourself. Be sure that there are two other people available for help.

If any part of the antenna should come in contact with a power line. DON'T TOUCH IT OR TRY TO REMOVE IT YOURSELF. Call your local power company immediately.They will remove it.

Should an electrical accident occur ... DON'TTOUCHTHE PERSON IN CONTACT WITH THE POWER LINE, or you too can become electrocuted. Instead, use a DRY board, stick, or rope to push or pull the victim away from the power lines and antenna. Once clear, check the victim. If he has stopped breathing, immediately administer car- diopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and stay with him. Have someone else call for medical help.

Install wire antennas high enough that they will not be "walked into" by people.

Do not install antenna wire(s) over or under utility lines.

The SDV2950 uses a power injector that sends a low power DC volt- age to the antenna to drive the signal amplifier built into the antenna though the RG-6 or RG-59 signal cable.

It is essential for proper operation of this antenna system that the power injector be connected between the antenna and any devices such as splitters, additional amplifers, matching transformers, networks, etc. SEE DIAGRAM TO LEFT.

Disregarding this important notice may result in damaging the power injector or improper operation / poor performance.
