To assemble the Hub assemble to the parabolic dish, pick up and hold the
Front Plate so that the flat side is pointed down and the beveled side is
pointed up. Place the Parabolic Dish over the Front Plate. Now, place the
Backplate over the rear of the Parabolic Dish. Insert the threaded hub of
the Backplate into the Front Plate threads and gently rotate the hub
clockwise to begin tightening. It should turn easily. Finish tightening the
hub until it hits the stop.
Assembly of Dish and Handle:
Place Dish over Front Plate &
place Backplate hub into threads.
Align Backplate and tighten
hub by rotating clockwise.
Next, place the Handle onto the hub of the Backplate. The Handle may
need some loosening to fit over the hub. To loosen, rotate the foam grip
part of the handle counter clockwise relative to the metal clamp part of
the Handle. Fit the Handle clamp over the hub. Tighten the Handle clamp
firmly by rotating clockwise; the Mic Tube should then also be clamped.
Don’t tighten all the way until you install either the Mic Tube or the Mic
Tube Eliminator into the hub. The Mic Tube Eliminator is only used if
using the Shock Mount system to mount your microphone.
Place Handle clamp over hub.
Tighten Handle clamp.
