3. Optional: If you adjust the antenna elevation now to the
coarse elevation value, before installing the reflector, it’s
easier than making this adjustment after the reflector is
attached. You can make this adjustment now or do it as part
of the antenna pointing procedure. (See Setting coarse
elevation on page 61.)
4. Rotate the Az/El and reflector bracket assembly until the
reflector side is oriented in the general direction of the
satellite.
If necessary, loosen the canister nuts just enough to allow the
assembly to rotate.
5. Snug the three canister nuts just enough to prevent the
assembly from rotating. Do not tighten the nuts at this time.
