Assembling the Ring to the Base-------
Assembling the AZ
-
EL Mount is very easy (familiarize yourself with Figure #3), as there
are only four parts to put together. First take the base can and set it on the base post
.
Tighten it with
the 3/4” set screws. Take the 60" ring and place each of the two ears inside of the tubes and line up the
holes on the ears with the holes in the tubes. You will notice the 3/4" holes in the center on each of
the 3” x 3” x 52 1/2" tubes welded to the 60" ring. Place the 3/4" x 5" bolts through the holes and
secure with the lock washers and nuts provided.
Place the elevation tube bracket onto the elevation tube. Tighten the set screws to hold it in
place. Take the top end of the elevation tube, the end with the 3" x 6" plate welded on and
place it in the brackets on the cross member of the ring. You will use a 3/4" x 3" bolt, lock
was
h
er and nut
.
Go to the ele
v
ation tube bracket and place the tab with
t
he 3/4” hole into the
tab brackets at the back
o
f the base can. Secure it with a 3/4” x 3" bolt
,
lock washer and nut
.
Ma
k
e sure the bolts are
s
ecure, but leave them slightly loose until you have aligned the
antenna on the sa
te
llite you will be using. Once you have aligned
th
e an
t
en
n
a, tighten all
bolts and nuts.
