The length of the reflector wire is very critical. It must be the correct length to
operate correctly. Take the wire
(WO4P)
and uncoil it making sure that there are no
kinks; secure it to a nail. Pull the wire until it stretches an inch or so. The easy way
to get the correct lengc#,for the reflector loop is as follows
1. Drive
2
nails in a board or fence
l/2
the length of the loop apart --which is 228”
(5.790m)
between them.
2. Stretch the wire
aro:zq$he
nails by hand as tightly as possible and splice ends
together. Solder the splice. Remove one nail
521,
Nil,
N12, N26,
and remove the loop. Cut any excess wire off.
3. Loosely assemble the machine screws
(S21),
flatwashers (N26), lockwashers
(N12),
and hex
nuts (N06) onto the lugs of the fiberglass arms,
adjusting the length as shown.
4. Tighten 3 of the 4 clamps that hold the

6. Tighten the wire by pulling the fourth

fiberglass rod until the wire is the same tightness as it was around the nails. The wire
loop is now the correct length. REFLECTOR DIMENSIONS ARE ONLY PRELIMINARY. CHANGE

FIBERGLASS LENGTH IS NOT CRITICAL, HOWEVER , THE EQUAL
