Reflector to Ground Mount Assembly

Step 1

Attach 16ft. (5m) chokers with corresponding 5/8” shackles to the Lifting Tabs (206278). Attach 30ft. (9m) tag lines of suitable rope equally spaced about reflector (refer to Figure 22).

Note: Ensure ground mount pedestal assembly has elevation jack in the fully retracted position.

Carefully raise the reflector assembly, position it over the pedestal and gently lower the assembly onto the pedestal. Attach and tighten using indicated hardware in Figure 22.

Note: After attaching the reflector, the crane may now be removed while the antenna is in the zenith position.
