Figure 3-7: Mount Alignment/Adjustment

NOTE: You may need to adjust the mount when lifting it to ensure that the anchor bolts are aligned directly underneath the base of the ground mount assembly as shown in Figure 3-7.

Attach the ground mount assembly to the eight corresponding anchor bolts using a 3/4 inch flat washer and 2-3/4 inch hex nuts as shown in Figure 3-3a.

NOTE: Ground mount positioning on the foundation is dependent upon predetermined azimuth viewing requirements. The ground mount assembly arm should be opposite the satellite requirement. If your site is in the Northern hemisphere, your satellite will be located in the South. If your site is in the Southern hemisphere, your satellite will be located in the North.

Remove the steel strapping from the ground mount assembly.

Tighten the foundation hardware using the A-325 tensioning procedure.

Figure 3-8a illustrates the ground mount assembly attached to the foundation.
