INSTALLING AND POINTING YOUR SATELLITE DISH ANTENNA

8)Install the mast assembly onto the mounting surface using a 3-inch x ¼-20 machine screw

(see diagram). Tighten the screw enough to secure the base plate, but leave it loose enough to enable you to adjust the base plate.

9) Verify that the mast is still plumb and adjust if necessary.

10) Mark the locations of the other three outside holes on the mounting surface.

11) Remove the base plate from the brick surface.

12) Drill three ½-inch x 3-inch holes for the outside holes.

13) Install the base plate using the 3-inch x ¼-20 machine screws and four 5/16-inch washers.

14) Tighten the four machine screws.

With the base plate and mast installed, proceed to the section titled “Attaching the Reflector Onto the LNB Support Arm” later in this chapter.
