Gently pull the cable through the 
slot until the connector is below 
the notch in the pedestal.

Drill a 5/8” hole in the roof for the 
coax cable. Make sure the ceiling 
area is clear underneath the 
chosen location for cable entry.

Make sure the coax runs 
through the slot on the 
underside of the pedestal. You 
may need to use cable clamps 
between the unit and the cable 
entry plate. Clamping every 
12–16” should eliminate any 
unnecessary cable movement.

Place the circular gasket in the 
chosen location for the antenna, 
and trace around the edge of 
the circular gasket.

Mounting Option 2

Run coax cable from the power 
supply through the ceiling and 
to the antenna. Then, run the 
coax cable upward through the 
antenna pedestal.

Connect the 
coax cable 
running from 
the power 
supply to the 
coax cable 
running from 
the antenna 
head.

Check with your vehicle 
manufacturer for approved 
sealant for your vehicle. Then, 
apply a liberal amount of sealant 
to the traced circle on the roof. 
Replace the gasket.  

Mounting Option 2

Before using the supplied 
screws, check with your vehicle 
manufacturer for any screw 
requirements. Align the holes 
in the gasket and pedestal, and 
mount the assembly to the roof 
with four screws. 

Slowly rotate the antenna head while gently pushing down on the 
antenna head. Once the keys on the pedestal align with the grooves in 
the antenna head, you should hear the head “click” into place. (

You may not 

be able to see the keys and grooves align, but the head will not fully snap into place until 
these parts align.

) The head and pedestal should be connected.

Run a solid bead of sealant where 
the edge of the pedestal meets the 
roof, over the screw heads and 
around the slot in the pedestal.

NOTE

 

After installing the 
antenna, install a cable 

entry plate (

not provided

) over the 

cable entry hole, and seal around 
the cable entry plate. Winegard 
recommends model CE-1000 
cable entry plate (

sold separately

). 

Continue with installing the power 
supply on page 7.

Carefully pull the coax cable 
away from the antenna until 
some resistance is felt. You 
should not pull more than two 
inches of excess cable

through the slot.
