IMPORTANT INITIAL ALIGNMENT PROCE-
DURE.
It is important that the drive system
components be so aligned (with reference to
east and west) to allow the antenna to be driven
by the controller to the lowest satellite above
horizon in either the east or the west as viewed
from your location.
You may have to adjust off from due south while
siting in later in the installation.
5. Install the Azimuth Actuator
as shown.
