Adjusting the antenna
If necessary, use the antenna adjustment tool (shipped with the Handheld) to carefully adjust the swivel tightness of the handheld antenna.
If the antenna is too loose
Use the antenna adjustment tool to tighten (turn clockwise) the antenna adjustment screw slightly until the antenna swivels properly.
Be careful to only turn the adjustment screw the minimum amount needed to tighten the handheld antenna swivel.
If the antenna is too tight
Use the antenna adjustment tool to loosen (turn counterclockwise) the antenna adjustment screw slightly until the antenna swivels properly.
IMPORTANT NOTE!
Do not over tighten the antenna adjustment screw. Over tightening the antenna adjustment screw may damage the Handheld.
