LIMITED WARRANTY
Cushcraft Corporation, P.O. Box 4680, Manchester, New Hampshire 03108, warrants to the
original purchaser for one year from date of purchase that each Cushcraft antenna is free of
defects in material or workmanship. If, in the judgement of Cushcraft, any such antenna is
defective, then Cushcraft Corporation will, at its option, repair or replace the antenna at its
expense within thirty days of the date the antenna is returned (at purchasers expense) to
Cushcraft or one of its authorized representatives. This warranty is in lieu of all other expressed
warranties, any implied warranty is limited in duration to one year. Cushcraft Corporation
shall not be liable for any incidental or consequential damages which may result from a defect.
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts or exclusions
or limitations of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation and exclusion
may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have
other rights which vary from state to state. This warranty does not extend to any products
which have been subject the misuse, neglect, accident or improper installation. Any repairs
or alterations outside of the Cushcraft factory will nullify this warranty.
The R6000 is designed for use with 50 Ohm coaxial cable terminated with a PL-259
connector. The shortest length of cable will have the least loss. A connector boot is
included for use with your new antenna (figure H). Slide the boot over the cable
before attaching your PL-259. Coat only the outside connector threads and shell with
silicone grease.
Do not coat the center pin or receptacle
. After the PL-259 is firmly
screwed onto the antenna connector, slide the vinyl boot over the connector and
against the connector bracket for a good weather-tight connection. After the antenna
is on the mast, tape the feedline to the mast.
