Mounting Transmitter Shelter on a Pole

1. While holding the 

shelter against the 
pole, place a U-bolt 
around the pole and 
through the two 
holes on at the top 
of the shelter.

2. Place a flat washer, 

a lock washer and a 
hex nut on each of 
the bolt ends. 

3. Using an adjustable 

wrench or 7/16" 
wrench, tighten the 
nuts.

4. Place the second U-bolt around the pole and through the two holes at the bottom 

of the shelter. Put a flat washer, a lock washer, and a hex nut on each bolt end, 
and tighten the hex nuts. 

Note: 

Remember to position the shelter so the solar panel has maximum exposure to the sun. 

Mounting Transmitter Shelter on a Vertical Surface

1. With a 3/16" (5 mm) drill bit, drill two holes approximately 2" (50 mm) apart. 

Use a carpenter’s level to ensure the holes will be level.

2. Drill two more holes 7-

1/32" below the upper 
holes.

3. Insert the 1/4" x 1-1/2" 

lag screws through the 
flat washers, and 
through the holes at the 
top of the shelter into 
the post. Using an 
adjustable wrench or 
7/16" wrench, tighten 
the lag screws.

4. Insert the 1/4" x 1-1/2" 

lag screws through the flat washers, and through the holes at the bottom of the 
shelter into the post. Using an adjustable wrench or 7/16" wrench, tighten the lag 
screws.

Note: 

Remember to position the shelter so the solar panel has maximum exposure to the sun.
