DirecTV HIRD-B1 Attaching the Reflector onto the LNB Support Arm, Assembling the HANT-3S Antenna

HUGHES-BRAND DIRECTV SYSTEM OWNER’S MANUAL

Attaching the Reflector onto the LNB Support Arm

There are two possible antenna models that may have been included with your DIRECTV System. Refer to the section that applies to your antenna model. If you don’t know which model number you have, you should be able to identify it by the associated diagram.

Assembling the HANT-3_S Antenna

1)Insert a flat-head screw into one of the holes in the face of the reflector, as shown.

2) Install the mounting bracket of the LNB support arm onto the four flat-head screws, as shown.

3) Loosely install a ¼-inch nut onto the portion of each flat-head screw that sticks through the back of the reflector and mounting bracket.

4) Tighten the four ¼-inch nuts. The heads of the flat-head screws must be flush on the inside surface of the reflector to be securely fastened to the LNB support arm.

5) Install the cable clip as shown.

Attaching the Antenna Assembly to the Mast or Pole

Now that you have assembled the antenna you are ready to mount it on your previously installed mast or pole. While the diagrams may show an antenna

model that differs from the one you have, the same procedures apply.

1) If necessary, slightly loosen the azimuth nuts on the LNB support arm.

2) Slide the antenna assembly onto the mast or pole until the top of the mast stops at the bolt at the top of the mounting assembly.

3) Tighten the azimuth nuts enough so that the antenna assembly can rotate easily on the mast or pole.

4) The next step is to ground the antenna.
