ES45T-T Reflector Assembly

The optional hoist kit (P/N 49080) must be assembled prior to reflector/ backstructure assembly hoisting. Hoist assembly should not be used for antenna elevation angle adjustment. The following steps provide the procedure for installing the reflector with the hoist kit.

Install support tab assembly (P/N 49067) into top of azimuth axis support (P/N 49634) as shown in Figure 73.

Figure 73

Loosely attach corresponding support assemblies (P/N 49071 and 49072) using spacers (P/N 49059) and appropriate hardware (P/N 45980-6).

•Angles should be installed edge down with flat of angles facing upward.

Install sheaves (P/N 49087) at each end between support assemblies using pins (P/N 39527) with cotter pins (P/N 9958-6). Securely tighten support assembly hardware.

Attach entire support assembly to previously installed support tab assembly (P/N 49067) using appropriate hardware (P/N 45980-6).

Loosely attach pick-up assemblies (P/N 49064) to support and elevation pivot assembly (P/N 49635) as shown.

•Use supplied U-bolts with 1/2 inch (13 mm) lockwashers and nuts.

•Pick-up assemblies are mounted with slanted tabs facing outward.

Loosely attach supports (P/N 49061) to corresponding tabs on support assemblies (P/N 49071 and 49072) using appropriate hardware (P/N 45980-1).

•Angles are installed edge down with flat of angles facing upward

Loosely attach support (P/N 49060) and remaining ends of supports (P/N 49061) to cor- responding pick-up assemblies (P/N 49064) using appropriate hardware (P/N 45980-1). Securely tighten all mounting hardware.

•Ensure entire hoist assembly is centered on support and elevation pivot assembly (P/N 49635)
