2-4.4 Installation of Whip Antenna

1. Visually inspect the whip mount connector (located on the ATU) for dirt
or damage. Clean if necessary.
2. Screw antenna base AB-591 into the whip mount connector. Tighten by
hand only.
3. Extend the whip: this is done by carefully whipping it outwards. Secure all
sections by inserting them one into the other by hand.
4. Screw whip antenna sections into antenna base.
5. To remove the whip antenna, perform the above tasks in the reverse
order.

CAUTION

When folding the whip, always start with the upper section,
otherwise it may be damaged.
