INSTALLATION
PROPER INSTALLATION IS IMPORTANT. IF YOU NEED ASSISTANCE, CONSULT A CONTRACTOR, ELECTRICIAN
OR TELEVISION ANTENNA INSTALLER (CHECK WITH YOUR LOCAL BUILDING SUPPLY, OR HARDWARE STORE
FOR REFERRALS). TO PROMOTE CONFIDENCE, PERFORM A TRIAL WIRING BEFORE INSTALLATION.
When connecting the wind direction sensor
to the Z-mast, make certain that terminal #4
is aligned with the Z-mast arm. If the sensor
is not installed in this manner your wind
direction readings will be incorrect.
Slide the stub masts through the rubber boots and
insert the stub masts into the bottom of the sensors. Secure
with the cotter pins. Coat all wire connections with silicone
sealant and slip the boots over the sensors.

Secure the sensors and stub masts to your antenna mast (not supplied) with
the two hose clamps. Align the wind-direction Z-mast arm to true North.
Radio Shack and similar stores have a selection of tall masts and roof
mounting brackets. Choose a mount that best suits your location and
provides at least eight feet of vertical clearance above objects on the roof.
