DH Satellite 26 Polar Series - Manual (Page 5)

ASSEMBLY OF THE MOUNT
Take the 26" ring and set it next to you with the welded stud bolt threaded rods sticking up in the
air. Take 4 - 1/2" nuts and screw one of them onto each of the stud bolts on the ring. Now take the
two angle pieces and slip each of them over the threaded rods on the ring. They must be put on
the ring in the same way. (Refer to Fig#3&4). Lock them in place with a 1/2" nut on each rod.
Next, you can take the Boom and place it in the middle of the angles between the tabs. Refer to
Fig#4 and you will see where you must put a 1/2 "x 2" bolt through the top tab and then through
the front of the boom. You must insert the bearing between the top tab and the boom, on both the
top and bottom angles.
Locate the locking bar (3/4” x ¾” x 16”l) and attach it to the right side of the top angle with a 1/2
"x 2" bolt and 1/2" lock washer. The other end will be attached the same way to the 1/2" hole on
the rear of the boom.
Find the base can and put it over the base post. (Fig#4) Tighten the set screws finger tight. Take
the elevation rod and attach it to the elevation tab on the back of the base can. Run a 5/8" nut
down this rod a few inches. This rod will then go in the center hole in the top of the boom. You are
now ready to put the mount on to the base can which is already on the base post. Pick up the
assembled mount and slip the boom between the two ears on the top of the base can (Fig#4 Exp),
line up the holes and secure with the 1/2" x 4" bolt and tighten with 1/2" lock nut. Slide the 5/8"
threaded elevation rod through the canter hole in the top of the boom, and secure with a 5/8" nut.
This rod will adjust your elevation setting and the boom should be set to match your latitude.
