MANUAL LOWERING TO PARK POSITION
MANUAL LOWERING
1. In the centre of the antenna (arrowed) there is a plastic
cap. Lever this off with a narrow slot-head screwdriver.
2. Behind the cap is an M8 hexagon head screw. Unscrew
these using a 13 mm socket wrench.
After removing the M8 screw, a further thread can be seen.
3. Attention! Secure and support the antenna to prevent it
tipping over. The connection to the rocker can suddenly
come loose during the next step (item 4). It is then no
longer connected to the turntable!
4. Screw an M10 x 40 screw

into this thread (minimum
length: 40 mm). Screwing in the M12 screw

pushes
the rocker off the taper seating on the tapered shaft
and releases the engagement.
Attention: Screw the screw in only as far as necessary
to free the rocker from engagement on the tapered
shaft!
5. Tilt the antenna to the park position (horizontal position).
6. Remove the M12 screw

. This allows the rocker to re-
engage on the tapered shaft.
7. Replace the M8 screw and tighten it.
8. Replace the plastic cap.
Loosening the rocker from the taper shaft causes the rocker
zero point position to be lost. When the authorised dealer
recti
fi
es the defect he will recalibrate the rocker!
9. Consult an authorised dealer.
