DANGER
If you work on a roof, tower, or other high structure or use a
ladder or scaffold to access the work site, follow these
precautions to prevent personal injury or death:
• Walk only on sound roof structures.
• Make sure the antenna assembly and installation
surface are structurally sound so they can support all
loads (equipment weight, ice, and wind).
• Use appropriate safety equipment (for example, a
lifeline), depending on the work location.
• Follow all safety precautions from the manufacturers of
all safety equipment and other equipment used.
• Perform as many procedures as possible on the ground.
DANGER
• To avoid electric shock, stay at least 20 ft from power
lines.
• If any part of the antenna or mount assembly comes in
contact with a power line, call your local power
company to remove it. Do not try to remove it yourself.
Failure to heed these warnings could result in serious injury
or death.
