STEP 15. The directional handle and threaded rod will fit roofs up to 5-1/4” thick. If you are using wedges to compensate for roof/cceiling slope, be sure to allow for this extra thickness. You may add an extension to the directional handle for thicker roofs. Each extension will increase the length of the directional handle by 2-1/4”. Figure 11

STEP 16. Press the directional handle onto the hub. Point arrow on the directional handle towards the ro- tate/lock lever to orient to the splines.

STEP 17. Install the washer and nut on the threaded rod. Tighten the nut enough to snug the directional handle to the hub.

STEP 18. IF YOU ARE USING AN EXTENSION, ad- just the total length of the directional handle and extension by cutting the directional handle.

After adjusting parts for proper roof thickness, glue the extension to the directional handle. Use ABS (plastic pipe) glue.

NOTE: For roofs over 5¼” thick, a longer aluminum hex shaft is needed. Contact Winegard for this part.
