IMPORTANT!!!
INSTALLATION OF THIS PRODUCT SHOULD BE PERFORMED ONLY BY A PROFESSIONAL INSTALLER
AND IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR CONSUMER D.I.Y. (DO-IT-YOURSELF) INSTALLATIONS.
DANGER!!!
WATCH FOR WIRES! You can be killed if this product comes near power lines. Installation of
this product near power lines is dangerous. For your own safety, follow these important safety
rules.
1. Perform as many functions as possible on the ground.
2. Watch out for overhead power lines. Check the distance to the power lines before starting
installation. We recommend you stay a minimum of 6 meters (20 feet) from all power lines.
3. Do not use metal ladders.
4. Do not install antenna or mast assembly on a windy day.
5. If you start to drop antenna or mast assembly, get away from it and let it fall.
6. If any part of the antenna or mast assembly comes in contact with a power line, call your
local power company. DO NOT TRY TO REMOVE IT YOURSELF! They will remove it safely.
7. Make sure that the mast assembly is properly grounded.
WARNING!!!
Assembling dish antennas on windy days can be dangerous. Because of the antenna surface, even
slight winds create strong forces. For example, a 1.0m antenna facing a wind of 32 km/h (20 mph) can
undergo forces of 269 N (60 lbs). Be prepared to safely handle these forces at unexpected moments.
Do not attempt to assemble, move or mount a dish on windy days or serious, even fatal accidents may
occur. Channel Master is not responsible or liable for damage or injury resulting from antenna
installations.
WARNING!!!
Antennas improperly installed or installed to an inadequate structure are very susceptible to wind
damage. This damage can be very serious or even life threatening. The owner and installer assumes
full responsibility that the installation is structurally sound to support all loads (weight, wind & ice) and
properly sealed against leaks. Channel Master will not accept liability for any damage caused by a
satellite system due to the many unknown variable applications.
