BUTTERFLY™ ELEMENT ASSEMBLY
The Butterfly™ elements will be assembled first, tuned and then attached to the boom. The fully
assembled antenna may then be installed on the mast. Although the antenna may rest on the ground for a
short time, it’s best to have your mast and rotor in place before assembly. NOTE: Mast, rotor and
supporting structure are not included with the antenna.
1. Insert a 1 1/8" U-bolt (V) through backing clamp (X),
then through the center holes of spreader tube (C).
Slide the U-bolt over the end of element tube (A) that
does not have the hole in it. The backing clamp (X)
should now be sandwiched between element tube (A)
and spreader tube (C). Position the edge of backing
clamp (X) 3/4 in (19 mm) from the end of element
tube (A). Secure the assembly with two 1/4" lock
washers (Z) and two 1/4" hex nuts (AA) finger tight.
Place the “T” formed in step 1 on a flat surface with the threaded end of U-bolt (V) facing up. A couple
of wood blocks may be used under spreader tube (C) to provide support.
