ASSEMBLY OF THE ANTENNA
(On Ground: Lift As One Piece Antenna)
FIG. #9
FIG. #10
Page 7A
The antenna will come in 4 or 8 pieces each having a color coded dot on the rib (see FIG. #9). NOTE: After
complete installation you will no longer see the colored dots. You must take two sections and place them
on a flat surface face down allowing for the installer to work on attaching the numbered ribs. The antenna
must always stay in crate until assembled. (see FIG. #10). Take panel one labeled 08/1 and 08/2 and attach it
to panel 2 which is labeled 08/2 on one rib and 08/3 on the other rib. Connect panel 1 with rib #2 (labeled
08/2) to panel 2 with rib #2 (labeled 08/2), matching the #2 on each rib of the two panels (See photos below).
Install 1/4" x 3/4" bolts in all holes, finger tight. Continue on to the next panel in the same manner until
finished with all panels. Now tighten all hardware.
Match 2 with 2
The top number represents the serial number of the antenna. *Example: In FIG. #9 you will see 4
sections with the top number 08. You will take all four pieces of 08 to make one complete antenna.
Rib number. *Example: On a 4 piece 3.0m antenna the dot will have a 08 on the upper part of
the dot (serial number) and the lower number of 1, 2, 3, 4 are the rib numbers.

IMPORTANT!!
If you have purchased a 4 piece or 8 piece
sectional antenna follow the instructions on page
7A and 7B.
NOTE:
The aluminum antenna is also stamped in the lip. This
number reflects the position of the panel.
The number stamped on the rib reflects the antenna as a
whole for bulk shipping. Each section has one rib stamped.
The number will be the same on all ribs making it one
complete antenna.
