Install the Antenna Mount
Before you install the antenna mount, you should make sure that you can
route the cable from the mounting location into your building, drilling holes
where necessary, to the receiver.
Assemble the satellite antenna in a safe location before climbing up to the
mounting location. Use caution when climbing, and when working at the
mounting location.
1. Gather all the items you will need for the assembly.
2. If the dish support arm and the bracket that holds it came
separately, attach the arm to the bracket with the
supplied bolts.
3. Mount the foot on the solid surface you have chosen.
4. Adjust the mast so that when the foot is mounted, the
upper part of the mast is, as close to vertical as possible.
Use a plumb line or bubble level to measure the upper
part of the mast. Alignment of the dish is more difficult
if the mast is not plumb.
