Installation Instructions - Mechanically Adjustable Downtilt Mounting Kit (T-045-
GL-E) , Bracket Spacing 716mm (28.2")
Assemble both mounting brackets as per Figures 4 and 5 (or Figures 7 and 8) of this
document.
1.
Attach the lower and upper mounting bracket assemblies to the antenna, before
clamping the brackets to the pole. Downtilt angles of 0
°
and 2
°
to 10
°
in 1
°
increments can be obtained with the correct setting of the tilt arm bracket. For 0
°
downtilt the tilt arm may be stowed as show in Figure 5.
2.
2
°
-10
°
downtilt can be achieved by aligning the corresponding hole in the tilt arm
to the pivot bracket which mates against the mounting pole, as shown in Figure 6 or
Figure 9. The first hole is for 2
°
downtilt, with each consecutive hole resulting in an
increased inclination of 1
°
.
3.
When the tilt arm is used in the upper antenna bracket as shown in Figures 4 and 5,
the mechanical tilt can be set to 0° or to any angle from 2° to 10° in 1° steps. The
electrical beams emerge from the front of the antenna with a 6° electrical downtilt
so 6° needs to be added to the mechanical tilt to find the actual pointing of the
beams.
4.
When the tilt arm is used in the lower mounting bracket as shown in Figure 6, the
mechanical uptilt can be set to 0° or to any angle from 2° to 10° in 1° steps. The
electrical beams emerge from the front of the antenna with a 6° electrical downtilt
so the mechanical uptilt needs to be subtracted from the 6° electrical downtilt to
find the actual downtilt of the beams.
The clamp brackets can clamp pipe diameters between 60mm (2.4") & 115mm (4.5").
For typical installations the minimum recommended pipe diameter is 75mm (3").
