Assembly - Element Spacer
The element spacers are designed to maintain the relationship between the three driven elements
providing unchanging performance under a wide variety of operating conditions. They will be
placed on element sections 20C, 15C and 10DR.
□
1.
Slide the large hole of one of the element spacers over the 20 meter driven element. As you
approach the 15 meter driven element, slide it through the center hole followed by the 10 meter
element through the end hole.
NOTE: Position the notched side of the holes to slide over the rivets.
□
2.
Position the element spacer so it rests against the end of element 20C.
□
3.
Slide one of the hose clamps over the 20 meter driven element until you reach the element
spacer. Securely tighten the hose clamp leaving about a 1/16" of clearance between it and the
spacer.
Repeat steps 1 through 3 for the remaining element spacer.
