WARNING!
INSTALLATION OF ANY ANTENNA NEAR POWER LINES IS DANGEROUS
Warning
:
Do not locate the antenna near overhead power lines or other electric light or power
circuits, or where it can come into contact with such circuits. When installing the antenna, take
extreme care not to come into contact with such circuits, because they may cause serious injury or
death.
Overhead Power Line Safety
Before you begin working, check carefully for overhead power lines in the area you will be
working. Don't assume that wires are telephone or cable lines: check with your electric utility for
advice.
Although overhead power lines may appear to be insulated, often these coverings are intended only
to protect metal wires from weather conditions and may not protect you from electric shock
Keep your distance! Remember the 10-foot rule: When carrying and using ladders and other long
tools, keep them at least 10 feet away from all overhead lines - including any lines from the power
pole to your home.
Tools Required
Two 7/16 wrenches, (one of them should be open-end)
Medium size standard screwdriver or 5/16 nut driver for the element clamps
3/16 and 1/4 nut drivers or wrenches
Tape measure and Felt-tip marker.
Antenna analyzer. The MFJ-259B is a suggested unit to facilitate the fine tuning of the vertical
antenna system.
