Assembling The Mounting Bracket

The ANT2020 consists of an off-air bracket and hardware, an offset mast, and eleven inch extension, and a swaged tube for non-vertical mounting. The bracket may be used with a satellite dish or alone to mount this off-air antenna.

For vertical mounting, place the off-air bracket behind the Satellite Mounting Bracket and follow the mounting instructions that came with the satellite system. Insert eleven inch extension into offset mast. Drill a hole through both and secure the two together with #10 self tapping screw. With the bracket secured to the wall or other vertical surface, mount the offset mast assembly to off-air bracket using U-bolts, mast clamps, lockwashers, and nuts as shown. Adjust the offset mast assembly so the off-air antenna is horizontal and does not interfere with the DBS antenna.

The off-air bracket may be used alone to mount an off-air anten- na. Mount the off-air bracket to the wall with the four lag bolts supplied and mount the offset mast to off-air bracket as shown.

For non-vertical mounting, place the off-air bracket behind the Satellite Mounting Bracket and follow the instructions that came with the satellite system. With the off-air bracket secured to the non-vertical surface, mount the swaged tube to the off-air brack- et using U-bolts, mast clamps, lockwashers, and nuts shown. Mount offset mast to swaged tube. NOTE: If additional off-air antenna height is needed or desired, insert eleven inch extension into offset mast. Drill a hole through both and secure the two together with #10 self tapping screw. Adjust the swaged tube and offset mast/offset mast assembly so the off-air antenna antenna is horizontal and the mast does not interfere with the DBS antenna. Drill a hole through offset mast/offset mast assembly and swaged tube. Secure the two together with #10 self tapping screw. NOTE: Be sure to route coaxial cable through the slot provided at top of offset mast when making coaxial connections.
