Mounting Antenna Using Pole Mount Antenna Kit
Complete the steps below to mount the antenna using the pole mount antenna kit.
1. Verify the kit contents.
2. Assemble both clamps, as shown in Figure 5, tightening the hex nuts to an approximate torque of approximately
45 ft-lbs.
3. Tighten half of one clamp two feet below the top of the pole. Use a 3/4” wrench to do this and be sure to tighten
the clamps both evenly and securely.
4. Tighten half of the other clamp, using a 3/4” wrench, a few inches below the top of the pole. Be sure to tighten the
clamps both evenly and securely.
5. Connect the LMR 400 cable to the antenna. Be sure the connection is tight.
6. Insert the mast into the clamps. The bottom of the mast should be a minimum of 2” below the bottom clamp.
7. Tighten all nuts on both clamps using a 3/4” wrench. The final assembly is to resemble Figure 5.
8. Next, route the antenna cable. For additional information, see "Route Antenna LMR 400 Coaxial Cable" located on
page 23.
