The ground mount assembly is now completed with the necessary operational essen- tials. All ground mount options (such as motors) have separate instructional bulletins located in the parts kit that contains the option.

The next step in the installation process is the reflector assembly. Proceed to the instructions on assembling the reflector.

The precision-spun aluminum reflector assembly enables ease of installation and ensures accurate surface contour providing exceptional operating characteristics in the C-/Ku- frequency band.

NOTE: The instructions below are provided for the split-reflector style 3.7-Meter Earth Station Antenna. If you are installing the full reflector style, skip this section and proceed to Step 7.

Upon receiving your 3.7-Meter Earth Station Antenna, notice that it is delivered in a wooden crate and covered with a white nylon sheath. The protective crate covering shields the product from being damaged during the shipment process.

While unpacking the shipment, ensure that the correct parts are included by checking them against the packing list. The following steps provide the procedure for unpacking the crate.

The crate arrives on site covered in a white sheath (domestic pack) or wood (export pack). See Figure 3-30a and Figure 3-30b.

Remove the protective covering from crate.

Pry the top crate panel off with a pry bar.
