INSTALLATION

Follow these instructions to install your prime 

outdoor antenna:

Stage 1. UNFOLDING ANTENNA

Grasp a folded element at the back of the antenna, 

close to the pivot point (within 300mm) and  

rotate outwards until it clicks firmly into place. 

Repeat this for the elements on the bottom side. 

Continue by working towards the front until all 

elements are firmly in place (See figure 1).

Stage 2. REFLECTOR ASSEMBLY

Follow below steps to assemble and mount the 

reflectors to the antenna boom:

1.

 Remove the two UHF reflector assemblies, two 

reflector screws and the two wing nuts from the 

sealed poly bag.

2.

 Locate the two mounting brackets pre-mounted 

on the antenna boom. (See Figure 2a)

3.

 Fix first UHF reflector to the mounting brackets 

on top side of the antenna boom. Make sure 

antenna elements are facing towards the front of 

the antenna as shown on Figure 2b.

Note: At this stage, fix loosely the first UHF 

reflector to mounting bracket as this will provide 

more flexibility to place the other UHF reflector in 

between the mounting bracket in other stages.
4.

 Now, mount the other UHF reflector assembly 

in between the two mounting brackets; use one 

reflector screw and one wing nut to hold the 

reflector in between the two mounting brackets.

5.

 Tighten both wing nuts attached to the mounting 

brackets clockwise until the two mounting brackets 

hold the two UHF reflector assemblies tightly.
