Antenna grounding and safety warning

1.Outdoor antennas and lead-in conductors from antenna to a build- ing, should not cross over open conductors of electric light or power circuits.They should be kept away from all circuits to avoid the possibility of accidental contact.

2.Each conductor of a lead-in from an outdoor antenna should be connected with an antenna discharge unit.Antenna discharge units (or Lightning Arrestor) should be located outside the building or inside the building between the point of entrance of the lead-in and the TV, and as near as practical to the entrance of the conductors to the building.

Important Safety Notes

If you do not feel comfortable or competent to install this antenna we recommend that you seek the assistance of a qualified professional antenna installer.

Read the instructions for this device thoroughly before attempting installation.

The installation or dismantling of any antenna near power lines is dan- gerous. Each year hundreds of people are killed or injured while attempting to install or service antennas. For your safety and proper antenna installation, read and follow all safety precautions.

Choose an installation site for safety as well as performance.

All electric power lines, cable lines and telephone lines look alike.To be safe, assume ANY overhead line can kill you.

Do not place an antenna where it could potentially fall on to, or blow into a power line. If in doubt call your electric provider. Let them review your site.

Outdoor antennas should be grounded with an approved lighting arrest- ing device. Local codes may apply. Use 8 AWG or larger ground wire. Height or other restrictions on antennas may apply to your installa- tion depending on your proximity to an airport, or local ordinances.
