(using the mounting bracket):
1. Fit the edges of the V-shaped clamp parts into the slots on the flat side of the rectangular
plate. The inner slots are for the 1.5-inch diameter pole and the outer slots for a 2-inch
diameter pole.

hold the bracket to the pole. (The bracket may need to be rotated around the pole during the
antenna alignment process).
3. Attach the square mounting plate to the bridge with the supplied screws.
