Mount a strap or cable strain-relief clamp to
the mast immediately above the grommeted
cable entrance hole near the masthead. (See
figure on this page). The clamp is placed
around the cable and secured to prevent
strain on the cable connection at the
Masthead Cable Mounting Block.

Starting at the masthead grommet, run the
cable through the inside of the mast. On a
mast with an internal PVC tube down the
length of the mast, run the cable through the
inside of the PVC tube to prevent the
Masthead Cable from crossing a halyard.
5
At the base of the mast, pull the cable
through the grommet. Seal the grommeted
holes with silicone sealant.
6
Step and rig the mast.
7
Route the cable from the exit of the mast to
the Junction Box, matching the wire colors of
the cut cable ends.

Take the Masthead Assembly up the mast.
Connect the Masthead Assembly electrical
connector to the electrical connector on the
mounting block. While supporting the weight
of the masthead Assembly, tighten its
threaded support sleeve to the threaded
support on the Mounting Block.
