WM5030-OD MOUNTING GUIDE
5
Call your electric power company. Tell them your plans, and ask them to look at your proposed
installation. This is a reasonable request considering the danger.
Plan your installation carefully and completely before you begin. Successful rising of a mast or tower is
largely a matter of coordination. Assign each person a specific task, and ensure that they know what to do
and when to do it. Put one person in charge of the operation to issue instructions and watch for signs of
trouble.
When installing your antenna, remember:
z
Do not use a metal ladder.
z
Do not work on a wet or windy day.
z
Do dress properly—shoes with rubber soles and heels, gloves, long sleeved shirt or jacket.
If the assembly starts to fall, get away from it and let it fall. Remember: the antenna, mast, cable, and
metal guy wires are excellent conductors of electrical current and may touch power lines.
If any part of the outdoor modem comes in contact with a power line, don’t touch it or try to remove it
yourself. Call your local power company. They can remove it safely. If an accident occurs with the power
lines, call for qualified emergency help immediately.
