6.Set the elevation by tilting the dish mounting bracket to align the red edge with the required angle from page 119 on the elevation scale. Tighten the elevation bolts, but do not tighten the pivot bolt at this time.

7.Slide the dish assembly down onto the mast. Make sure the pivot bolt rests on the top of the mast. Turn the dish assembly so that it points in the general direction of the satellites, using the azimuth angle from page 119.

8.Thread two RG-6 coaxial cables through the mast, support arm, and

the Y-bracket. These cables should be long enough to run from your receiver to your LNBF.
