Important Safety Precautions

WARNING! Many do-it-yourself and professional antenna installers are injured or killed each year by electric shock. While anyone can see the obvious danger of falling, the most resourceful sometimes fail to recognize overhead wires as being potentially lethal. To touch any part of the antenna to these overhead wires is the same as touching the wires with your bare hand. A very serious shock is almost sure to result when contacting an electrical wire, and, in the case of primary wires on the tip of poles, the shock is similar to being struck by a bolt of lightning. Many power wires are within 20 to 25 feet of the ground and can easily be touched by an assembled antenna.

Please read and follow these important safety precautions.

•Get help from a qualified professional if removing an old antenna and there is any doubt of clearing overhead wires.

•Never install the antenna outdoors at night or in inclement weather conditions.

•Make sure the antenna downlead cable is connected to suitable lightning arrestors.

•Make sure the antenna installation is secure.

Lightning Protection

Always plug your TV and other electronic devices into

a quality surge protector for maximum protection against lightning and power surges.

•Do not try to guess which overhead wires carry high voltage. Check with the power company.

•If you notice anything making contact with the overhead wires, call the power company to have it removed safely.

•Do not run the downlead cable over power lines.

All outdoor antenna installations should be properly grounded. To effectively protect the installations, the coaxial cable(s) should be grounded before they enter the house. The grounding of the coaxial cable is made using a “ground block” and copper wire (not supplied). For information, and the materials needed to ground your antenna installation, visit your local electronics store.
