Assemble Ring to Base Stand

    

(for  the 2.4 m & 2.7m)

 

 

You will have to assemble the 39” ring to the Ge-Mini base.  Look at the 
photo of the mount in photo Fig. #3, you will notice that the top of the 
mount has a bracket to attach the elevation arm.  The bottom of the 2” 
framework has two tabs.  Insert a ½”x ¾” x ½” long brass bushing (found in 
the bolt bag) into each of the tabs.  Place the ring on the base stand, inserting 
the tabs (with the bushing) into the double ear tabs.  Secure with ½” x 2 ½” 
bolt, ½” lock washer & nut.    Next install the elevation actuator.  Attach the 
gimball actuator clamp to the right side rear of the 2” square tube with a ½” 
x 4 ½” bolt.  Then take the eyebolt on the end of the actuator and put it in 
between the top bracket of the frame work of the ring.  Use a ½” x 2” bolt 
and use a lock washer and nut to secure it in place.  This elevation actuator 
will be used to precisely aim the dish to the satellite you are using.
