Note: The installer is responsible for determining the most appropriate fastener to secure the
dome unit to the vessel surface. Depending on the surface material, fasteners such as
lag screws, well nuts, sheet metal screws, toggle bolts and T anchors may be used, and
should always be used in combination with a surface compatible adhesive sealant.
IMPORTANT! The installer is responsible for weatherproofing all holes with sealant.
1. Mount the dome unit. Use the pre-drilled holes in the mounting feet as a guide to install
the fasteners into the vessel surface. Use additional fasteners whenever necessary.
2. Test that the dome unit is secure by pulling upward from each foot location.
3. Connect 50’ coax cable to the coax port labeled MAIN on the back of the dome unit and
tighten connection. If using a second receiver, connect second 50’ coax cable to coax
port labeled AUX and tighten connection.
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN CONNECTIONS.
(Fig. 9) .
4. Snap the gel-filled boot(s) around the coax cable(s), then push flush against the rubber
sleeve(s) on the coax port(s) (Fig. 9) .
IMPORTANT! Make sure power supply is disconnected from 110 volt source before
continuing with permanent installation.
Make sure shipping restraints are removed from bottom of dome unit, and
plugs inserted in appropriate holes (Fig. 5, Page 5 and Fig. 6, Page 6).
Cable connection must ALWAYS be positioned facing the rear of vessel.
DO NOT USE THE FOUR SEALED BEARING HOLES IN THE BOTTOM OF
THE DOME UNIT FOR MOUNTING.
Note: The King-Dome is wired for a dual LNB. There are two coaxial ports on the back of the
dome unit. The one labeled “MAIN” must be connected to the Tuner (IDB) in vessel.
The one labeled “AUX” can be used for an additional receiver (see page 15).
Apply non-conductive electrolytic grease to all stingers (coax cable center conductors)
before installation.
IMPORTANT! Do not remove the rubber sleeve from the coax port. The coax cable end
will slide inside the sleeve as it is tightened.
