To mount the Wind Gauge Sensor to a mast, you will need:
• A 1” to 1 ¼” diameter mast (not included).
• Hardware to fasten the mast to the mounting location (not included).
1. If necessary, mount and ground a mast at the selected location (such as a
roof or fence post) as directed in the instructions provided by the mast (not
included).
2. Hold the Sensor base up against the mast (see illustration). The metal bar
is horizontal to the mast. The Wind Vane Cups should point down, and
the Compass/Wind Direction Indicator should point up.
3. Place 2 hex screws (included) into the 2 holes on the top of the base.
4. On the bottom of the base, place one of the “U” shaped metal plates
(included) around the mast and through the screws. The mast will be
between the plate and the sensor base.
5. Tighten 2 hex nuts (included) on the screws using an Allen wrench to hold
the sensor to the mast.
6. Repeat with the bottom two holes to tightly secure the sensor to the mast.
Mounting Option: If another mast has been previously installed (for
example, for mounting an antenna), the wind gauge sensor may be mounted
on that existing mast. Or, if there is an existing piece of 1 to 1 ¼” diameter
PVC pipe or other mast that is not the correct size (such as a kitchen sink vent),
an extender may be placed on that pipe, then an extension mast may be
attached to it.
