INSTALLING THE MOUNT ON A WOODEN DECK POST
The satellite antenna dish can be installed on a 6-inch x 6-inch Southern Pine wood deck support post. The post can be no more than
8 feet tall. It must be adequately attached at top and bottom. Posts made of other species of wood may be used as long as their mate-
rial properties match or exceed those of Southern Pine. Posts made of other species of wood whose material properties do not match
or exceed those of Southern Pine require engineering evaluation and approval before being used. The satellite antenna dish may not
be installed on an unsupported wooden post.
