Installation and Setup
Assembling the 90cm Dish
Here is how it can be done:
1. Place the mount foot on the surface location
where you intend to attach it to the structure.
2. Mark the location of one of the 2 holes and
remove the mount.
3. Drill the hole and attach the mount foot with
the one fastener only.
4. Place a spirit level on the top and side of the
foot and pivot the foot to make it level and plumb. Drill the other hole while the
mount foot is still properly in place. (Alternatively, you can mark the hole, remove
the mount, then drill).
5. Attach the mount with the fasteners; seal the holes with silicone to prevent water
damage to your dwelling.
6. Install the mast to the mount foot using the supplied fastener. Orientate the mast so
that the short curved portion will face vertically.
7. Place a spirit level on the front face of the short curved portion of the mast and adjust
the mast to a vertical position. Tighten the mast mounting bolt.
8. Attach the two struts to the mast with the supplied hardware. Tighten the bolt for a
snug fit that still allows some slight movement of the struts.
9. Position the foot of each strut squarely on the mounting surface and mark the holes
for drilling. Prior to drilling the strut holes, confirm with the spirit level that the mast
is still vertical. This is a critical check to ensure proper alignment.
10. Drill the holes while the strut feet are still properly in place. (Alternatively, you
can mark the holes, move the struts slightly, then drill.)
11. Attach the mount with the 4 fasteners; seal the holes with silicone to prevent water
damage to your dwelling.
12. Tighten the strut attachment bolt which was installed in step 8. Place the level on
front face of the short curved portion of the mast to confirm that the mast is still
vertical. There are no further adjustments to make to the mount.
If you have trouble fastening the mount to a surface, try mounting a solid
piece of wood to your dwellingÕs surface first, then fastening the mount to
the wood.
