Mounting

Screw*

1. Using the base of the Swivel Mount as a template, mark the

location for the four mounting holes. Drill ¼” holes.

Note: When drilling fiberglass, place a wooden backup block

behind the surface if possible, to minimize push-through

damage.

2. Attach the Swivel Mount to the mounting surface using

hardware (sold separately) that is applicable to the mounting

surface.

IMPORTANT: If the thickness of the mounting surface is not adequate to support the antenna under expected stress, a wooden back-up pad (not supplied) should be applied underneath the mounting surface during installation.

3.Assemble the antenna to the Swivel Mount, being careful not to damage the antenna’s cabling, if any.

4.Loosen the wing nut on top of the Standoff Bracket and slide the retainer bar out of the way. Gently place the antenna in its mounting position in the U-shaped opening in the bracket. For 11/8” and 1” antennas, put the appropriate reducing adapter (supplied) in the opening.

5.Rotate the retainer bar over the antenna to lock it in place.

6.Using the Standoff Bracket itself as a template, mark the position for its mounting holes.

7.Drill ¼” mounting holes, and install the bracket using stainless steel hardware appropriate to the mounting surface (hardware sold separately).

8.Tighten the wing nut to secure the antenna in the bracket. The completed installation should attach the antenna firmly to the mounting surface, leaving no “play” between the antenna and the standoff bracket.
