How to hoist the Antenna Unit
The Antenna Unit may be assembled before hoisting it to the mounting platform. Do
one of the following to hoist the Antenna Unit. Attach shackles (20, local supply) to
the lifting fixtures to use belt slings. After the Antenna Unit is securely placed, remove
the shackles.
Also, hoist the Antenna Unit slowly
. Hoisting swiftly may cause a damage to the an-
tenna radiator or damage the radiator chassis.
Upright hoisting
Note: Do not hoist the Antenna Unit by hanging belt
slings around the radiator directly.
Sideways hoisting
Fasten one belt sling to both shackles, and pass the other belt sling around the
stern side of the radiator.
