3)  Adjust the azimuth angle of the antenna. Determine the azimuth angle using a 
compass according to the engineering design documents. Normally, sector 1 is 
in the north. Sector 2 lies in the clockwise 120° direction and sector 3 in the next 
clockwise 120° direction, as shown in Figure 2-21. By turning the antenna slightly, 
the personnel can adjust the azimuth angle until it satisfies the design index. 
Usually, the error of the azimuth angel shall be [5°.

4)  Tighten the lower fixing clip of the antenna until it cannot be moved by any hand 
pull or push. 
5)  Adjust the pitch angle of the antenna. If the mounting hole of each directional 
antenna has its corresponding pitch angle, the antenna can be installed directly 
into the mounting hole as shown in Figure 2-22 and Figure 2-23. However, the 
supporting post shall be kept perpendicular to the ground during the installation. 
For other antennas, the pitch angles are adjusted in the following method: 
z  Decide the pitch angle of the antenna using the angle display, as shown in 
Figure 2-24 and Figure 2-25. 
z  By turning the antenna slightly, adjust the pitch angle until it satisfies the 
engineering design index, as shown in Figure 2-26. Usually, the error of the pitch 
angle is required to be [ 0.5°. 
z  Tighten the upper fixing clip of the antenna until it cannot be moved by any hand 
pull or push.
