3. Place the pole in the hole and use a small amount of dirt or stones

to hold the pole upright. You need to attach guy wires to help
keep the pole upright.

4. Level the pole using the bubble level. Level the pole at two

different locations that are at right angles to each other.

5. Fill the hole with quick drying cement. Stop when the cement is

about two inches from the top of the hole.

6. Let the cement completely dry before you mount the dish on

the pole.

7. Go on to the next section, “Final Installation,” to complete the
