IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS |
|
| |
• | Remember, when working on a roof, use two men | • | Never walk on a composition roof in cold weather |
• | Wear sneakers or crepe soles and use a safety rope | • | Always watch for power lines |
ATTIC INSTALLATION:
Using a roof mount, attach a short piece of mast to a convenient roof rafter. Attach and aim the antenna in the same manner as outlined for outdoor installations. NOTE: Antennas should not be installed in an attic if the roof or walls are metal or are lined with foil backed insulation.
ROOF MOUNT: Used on peaked or flat type roofs. Suggested Height Limit: 10 feet above roof top.
Using a roof mount, connect the mast with guy ring and guy wires attached to the mount. Use three or four guy wires, equally spaced around the mast, and anchor the guy wires to the roof or eaves with eyebolts. The guy ring should be clamped approximately 1 foot below the antenna. Use roofing compound around the base of the mount, screws and eyebolts to seal against moisture. After the installation has been complet- ed, mount the extra WARNING LABEL supplied with the antenna hardware to the mast at EYE LEVEL!
CHIMNEY MOUNTING: Suggested Height Limitation: 10 feet above rooftop.
First, check your chimney thoroughly for stability to make sure that it is strong enough to support the antenna during severe winds. Do not use a chim- ney that as loose bricks or mortar. Install the upper bracket just below the top course of bricks and the lower bracket just below the top course of bricks and the lower bracket at least 2¹⁄₂ feet below the top bracket. (For maximum strength, space the brackets as far apart as possible.) After the installa- tion has been completed, mount the extra WARNING LABEL supplied with the antenna hardware to the mast at EYE LEVEL!
WALL MOUNT: Suggested Height Limitation: 10 feet above rooftop.
If the roof overhang is not excessive, the side of the house can be used for mounting. If a wall mounted installation is done from the ground up, use a ground mount with a “spike” at the ground. Position the wall brackets over a stud if possible; one above the other and space a minimum of three feet apart. For metal siding, mark mounting holes, then drill pilot holes through the siding for mounting screws. If you use a
TRIPOD MOUNT: Use on peaked or flat roofs. Suggested Height Limit: 10 feet above roof top.
The tripod mount can be mounted to any style roof by adjusting the bracket on the center leg. Insert the mast into the tripod mount and place the mount with legs over the roof rafters. Make sure the mast is vertical. Remove the protective covering from one side of the three pitch pads and place under the base of each tripod leg with the tacky side towards the roof. Secure the tripod mount to the roof using lag screws. After the installation has been complet- ed, mount the extra WARNING LABEL supplied with the antenna hardware to the mast at EYE LEVEL!
ANTENNA REMOVAL:
Removal of your antenna should be exactly in reverse of the installation instructions. For your own safety, please follow the instructions for installing the antenna starting with the last step first. This is the only way to safely remove your antenna.
