Attach fine adjustment assembly between adjacent azimuth strut sections as shown in Figure 51 using appropriate brackets,
Note: Fine adjustment assembly on azimuth strut should be positioned away from ground mount angles.
Set fine elevation and azimuth strut positions by loosening strut set screws and selected out fine adjustment hex nut. Turn corresponding inner hex nut in appropriate direction until required strut length is achieved. Securely tighten strut set screws and correspond- ing outer hex nut.
During final electrical tuning, adjust elevation and azimuth struts appropriately to length- en or shorten struts for optimal signal strength.
After fine adjustments are complete, ensure strut set screws are securely tightened to
Securely tighten eight
Remove both fine adjustment assemblies and store in weather protected location for future use.
