Adjustments
There are three areas of adjustments on the antenna, antenna arm and mounting bracket. Please use these areas to adjust the antenna so that it is level. You will have to loosen the Phillips screws to rotate and adjust. Once the adjustment has been made to the desired position, tighten the Phillips screw. Be careful not to over tighten. We recommend that you make the adjustments, if needed, to each area in the order that is shown below.

The connectors at each end of the cable are different. find the connector that has the threads on the inside, then screw this connector onto the bottom of the antenna as shown below. Screw the connector on by hand as far as it can go. It is not necessary
to use any special tools for this.
Once the cable is secured onto the antenna, slide the attached rubber bottom onto the antenna as shown. Uncoil the remaining cable. On one side of the mounting bracket arm is a cable track with five cable clips.
