REFLECTOR ASSEMBLY 

Two of the reflector panels are in the topmost compartment, and the remaining four 
as well as the feed support parts are in the bottom compartment which can be 
accessed with the perimeter zipper around the middle of the case.  Remove them 
taking note how they were packed so they can be repacked accordingly.  You will 
need the bottom-most panel to begin with. 

1.

 

Starting with panel B2, guide the mounting lugs into the receiving brackets of the 
Mount assembly taking care to align the flatted sides of the pins with the flatted 
sides of the receiver brackets.  Then with the indicator line of the knob aligned 
pointing to the Elevation Turnbuckle, pivot the panel assembly engaging the 
turnbuckle into the knob pin.  When fully engaged turn the knob approximately 
¼ turn CCW to lock.  The panel assembly is now fully locked to the mount 
assembly. 

 

2.

 

Adjust the Elevation to approximately 30 degrees for the installation of the 
remaining five panels.  (Elevation scale is on back of panel B2 near Turnbuckle)
