ROTATOR DRIVE UNIT ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION

" Ensure the controller is set to 000 degrees (North). Ensure that the drive unit's arrow and North line

are aligned.

" Switch off and unplug from 120VAC for the duration of the installation process.
" First ensure that the proposed location of the rotator, antenna masts and the antenna are well clear

of any overhead power lines. (Refer to the Antenna Installation Safety Sheet, normally supplied
with an off-air antenna.)

"
"

" Make certain the small end of the antenna is pointing in the direction of the arrow and North line.
" Secure the completed assembly to fixed mast and align with the antenna pointing NORTH.

Ensure the antenna mast is perfectly vertical prior to installation.

Attach the Rotator to the mast by installing the four bolts ¯ and tightening the two C-clamps

evenly, using the four nuts ®. See Fig 2

Attach the antenna to the rotator using a very short (approx 12 inch) stub mast and the two U-bolts

¬. Tighten the two C-clamps evenly, using the nuts ®. Use the shortest possible stub-mast to
minimize wind loading. See Fig 3
