Step 7 Attach stretch-formed Skirts (222765-2), Strip Spacer (300040) and Inboard Skirt (300082-2) to Reflector Panels (222677) before attaching panels to ribs. Refer to Figure 15, Section A-A & View B-B. Do not install outer-most screw on each side of skirt at this time.

NOTE: Do not overtighten skirt panel screws. It may deform the panel. Tighten screws only enough to fully compress the lockwashers.

Referring to the supplied Feed Support Installation drawing (240159) supplied with the antenna, install the Rotating Tube Assembly at this point.
