1. Push the SAT mast 13 cm up.
2. Align the antenna to the south.
3. For the number of crank handle rotations for your
location, see figure on the left or the Azimuth/Eleva-
tion table in the user manual of your antenna.
Bear in mind that one rotation of the crank handle
corresponds to 12
° and one division mark on the
turning handle corresponds to 1°.
Bear in mind that the swivel head is resistant to
motion at first. It is easier to move it after a few
adjustments.
4. Turn the crank handle clockwise to adjust the antenna
to the correct elevation position.

mast clockwise or anti-clockwise until you see a
picture on the screen.
3. Slowly turn the crank handle and the mast clockwise
or anti-clockwise to make fine adjustments to obtain
the best picture quality. Use the signal strength bar on
TV for checking purposes.
4. Tighten the screws on the mounting bracket and the
cone nut on the roof duct to prevent the antenna and
the mast from rotation.
Tip
If there is no satellite signal, it is possible that the vehicle is not positioned horizontally. Turn the crank handle
a ¼ to ½ turn to receive a signal.
