Assembling the Satellite Dish Antenna

1)Insert a flat-head screw into one of the holes in the face of the reflector, as shown.

2)Install the mounting bracket of the LNB support arm onto the four flat-head screws, as shown.

3) Loosely install a ¼-inch nut onto the portion of each flat-head screw that sticks through the back of the reflector and mounting bracket.

4) Tighten the four ¼-inch nuts. The heads of the flat- head screws must be flush on the inside surface of the reflector to be securely fastened to the LNB support arm.

5) Install the cable clip as shown.

Attaching the Satellite Dish Antenna Assembly to the Mast or Pole

Now that you have assembled the satellite dish antenna you are ready to mount it on your previously installed mast or pole. While the diagrams may show a

satellite dish antenna model that differs from the one you have, the same procedures apply.

1) If necessary, slightly loosen the azimuth nuts on the LNB support arm.

2) Slide the satellite dish antenna assembly onto the mast or pole until the top of the mast stops at the bolt at the top of the mounting assembly.

3) Tighten the azimuth nuts enough so that the satellite dish antenna assembly can rotate easily on the mast or pole.

4) The next step is to ground the satellite dish antenna.

CAUTION

Local electric codes and the National Electric Code (NEC) require the satellite dish antenna to be grounded. Grounding the satellite dish antenna helps protect against damage caused by static voltage buildup or nearby lightning strikes.
