Installation

NOTE: If your RV/coach has been prewired for the Winegard Pinnacle RV

Satellite System, RD-9946 proceed to step 2.

1.Your RV/coach design (i.e. flat roof, rounded roof, obstructions, etc.) will determine how and where you mount the system. You have two options for running the control cable; Option A: Run the cable straight down from the mount (see Figure 5) or Option B (see page 15, cable roof-thru plate installation): Snap the knockouts on the base and run the cable to a different entry point (refrigerator vent, etc.)*. Figure 6 shows the knock out location on the base..

2.After determining how you want to run the control cable, you are ready to attach the mount base to the roof. Make sure the location you choose has adequate clearances; review Figures 1, 2 and 3. Figure 4 shows bolt hole pattern.

3.Attach mount base to roof (DO NOT BEND MOUNT BASE!). Remember to caulk all mounting holes and cable entry, see Figure 7. If running cable out through knockouts secure cable against whipping.

4.Make cable connections from 35' cable to mount assembly. Use FS-8100 to make coax connection. Use electrical tape to seal connections (Scotch® 33+ or 88 electrical tape is recommended). See Figure 7.
