5.3.1 Install U-bolts and metal plate
Installation of the U-bolts, which are in turn used to mount the sensor
package on a pole, requires installation of an included metal plate to
receive the U-bolt ends. The metal plate, visible in Figure 2 on the right
side, has four holes through which the ends of the two U-Bolts will fit.
The plate itself is inserted in a groove on the bottom of the unit (opposite
side of solar panel). Note that one side of the plate has a straight edge
(which goes into the groove), the other side is bent at a 90-degree angle
