Assembly
The assembly described is for the
DXE-ARAV3-1P
steel hardware threads to prevent galling and to ensure proper torque.
Orient the black Mounting Plate with the two brass element mounting block holes closer to the top
left, as shown in
Figure 1
. Use the 7/16" x 1-1/2" bolts, flat washers, split washers, and nuts to
mount the brass element block to the mounting plate. Make sure the threaded hole in the element
block for the antenna element is facing upward. Use a flat washer under each bolt head and a flat
and split washer combination under each nut. Do not over-tighten.
