1. Use a tether to secure the antenna’s hoisting eye to the mounting structure.

The tether can be a rope, wire rope, chain, or similar material. The tether should
be short enough to prevent the antenna from tilting beyond its maximum downtilt
range. This will prevent the antenna from tilting away from the mounting structure
when the adjusting bolts are removed.

Installed cables or the antenna may be damaged if they are allowed to strike the
mounting structure when the antenna mechanical downtilt is changed.

2.Loosen the fasteners holding the bottom antenna bracket to the bottom pivot
bracket. Do not remove them.
