• Cortadores de cable
• Alicates
B. DONDE MONTAR LA ANTENA
La antena se puede montar en la chimenea o bien,
la raíz o en una pared exterior o en un ático. Elija
el método que mejor se adapte a su situación
particular.
C. LÍNEA DE TRANSMISIÓN
75 Ohm cable coaxial tiene una vida Ionger-span
de 300 Ohm twinlead cable y no se ve afectada
por el contacto con el metal o la humedad. Para
instalar el cable coaxial, empezar por conectar
la antena extremo del cable a la antena balun
(suministrado con la antena). Conecte la entrada
de los cables a la antena balun terminales, y,
después, el cable coaxial a través de un standout
montado en el mástil. Esto evitará que el peso de
la Iine tirando de las conexiones de la antena.
D. PROTECCIÓN CONTRA RAYOS
El mástil y la transmisión Iine debe Iightning a tierra
para protección. Ejecutar un # 8 (o mayor), de
aluminio o cobre de un perno en el mástil o de su
base, hasta un 8 ‘vara de tierra. Mantenga el Iine
a un respetable distancia del cable de transmisión
de señal para evitar interferencias. Un bloque
de tierra coaxial (Channel Master Modelo 3274),
debe estar conectado a la antena de transmisión
de cable en el punto en que entra en la casa.
E. ENCAMINADA HACIA SU ANTENA
TRANSMITE LA ESTACIÓN
Una vez que la antena se haya completado la
instalación, encienda su televisor y tener un ayudante
observar la recepción. En el techo, el U-Ioosen
tuercas y pernos a su vez la antena hasta obtener la
mejor recepción. Una vez que esto se logra, apriete
los pernos en U nueces segura.
NOTA:
i las emisoras se encuentran en distintas
direcciones, necesitará una antena de los
rotadores. Esto le permitirá girar la antena y
estaciones aisladas de identi
fi
car desde el
interior de su hogar. (Para más información sobre
rotadores, visite www.channelmaster.com.)

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
• Remember, when working on a roof, use two adults.
• Never walk on a composition roof in cold weather.
• Wear sneakers or crepe soles, and use a safety rope.
• Always watch for power lines.
A. ATTIC MOUNT
Using a roof mount, attach a short piece of mast to a
convenient roof rafter. Attach and aim the antenna in
the same manner as outlined for outdoor installations.
NOTE:
Antennas should not be installed in an attic if the
roof or walls are metal or are lined with foil backed insulation.
B. ROOF MOUNT
Used on peaked or
fl
at roofs.
Suggested Height Limit:
10 feet above roof top.
Using a roof mount, connect the mast with guy ring and
guy wires attached, to the mount. Use three or four guy
wires, equally spaced around the mast, and anchor
the guy wires to the roof or eaves with eyebolts. The
guy ring should be clamped approximately one (1) foot
below the antenna, Use roo
fi
ng compound around the
base of the mount, screws and eyebolts to seal against
moisture. After the installation has been completed,
mount the extra
WARNING LABEL
supplied with the
antenna hardware to the mast at
EYE LEVEL
!
C. CHIMNEY MOUNTING
Suggested Height Limit:
10 feet above rooftop.
First, check your chimney thoroughly for stability
to make sure that it is strong enough to support the
antenna during severe winds. Do not use a chimney
that has loose bricks or mortar. Install the upper bracket
just below the top course of bricks and the lower bracket
at least 2 1/2 feet below the top bracket. (For maximum
strength, space the brackets as far apart as possible.)
After the installation has been completed, mount the
extra
WARNING LABEL
supplied with the antenna
hardware to the mast at
EYE LEVEL
!
D. WALL MOUNT
Suggested Height Limit:
10 feet above rooftop.
If the roof overhang is not excessive, the side of the
house can be used for mounting. If a wall mounted
installation is done from the ground up, use a ground
mount with a “spike” at the ground. Position the wall
brackets over a stud if possible; one above the other
and space a minimum of three feet (3) apart. For metal
siding, mark mounting holes, then drill pilot holes through
the siding for mounting screws. If you use a 2-piece
mast, assemble the pieces as shown, making sure that
they are properly locked together. Split between masts
should be between the two (2) wall brackets, After
the installation has been completed, mount the extra
WARNING LABEL
supplied with the antenna hardware
to the mast at
EYE LEVEL
!
E. TRIPOD MOUNT
Use on peaked or
fl
at roofs.
Suggested Height Limit:
10 feet above roof top.
The tripod mount can be mounted to any style roof by
adjusting the bracket on the center leg. Insert the mast
into the tripod mount and place the mount with legs over
the roof rafters. Make sure the mast is vertical. Remove
the protective covering from one side of the three (3)
pitch pads and place under the base of each tripod leg
with the tacky side towards the roof. Secure the tripod
mount to the roof using lag screws. After the installation
has been completed, mount the extra
WARNING LABEL
supplied with the antenna hardware to the mast at
EYE LEVEL
!
F. ANTENNA REMOVAL
Removal of your antenna should be exactly in reverse
of the installation instructions. For your own safety,
please follow the instructions for installing the antenna
starting with the last step
fi
rst. This is the only way to
safely remove your antenna.
