Procedure 1c: Flat Roof Installations
1. For each of the tripod feet, remove the protective paper from one side of the sealing pad to
expose the adhesive then adhere the sealing pad to the bottom of the tripod foot (Figure 7).
2. Use a rubber band to attach a level device, such as the one in the Tripod Installation Kit
(P/N TP1-TK), to the midpoint of the tripod mast.
3.
Place the tripod on the roof, remove the protective paper from the bottom of the sealing pads, and
extend the tripod legs.
4.
Position the tripod such that it is level and all of the foot pads are flat on the roof. Some
adjustment is available after the tripod has been attached to the roof by loosening/tightening the
upper and lower collar bolts. If more adjustment is required, use shims to adjust the foot
foundation height until the mast is level.
5.
Screw the lag bolts through the holes of each tripod foot (Figure 8). The bolts must pierce
the sealing pads.
6. Follow Procedure 3: Mounting the WeatherHawk Station on a Tripod or Pole (page 10).
