Safety
Working at height carry out work outdoors at height only if you are competent in the use of ladders and related access equipment.
Always work safely within your own limitations, ensuring that all equipment used is appropriate and is in good condition.
Fit a suitable aerial mast to the bracket using V bolts. It may be
necessary to use a cranked mast if the chimney has a stepped
top (avoid positioning the aerial over the top of an operating
chimney as heat and gas may affect performance over time).
Maximum recommended length of aerial -1 metre; maximum
recommended mast length - 5 ft (1.5 metre). For heavier
installations use multiple products.
Do not install this product on a chimney which is in poor condition
(loose or damaged, cracked or heavily weathered bricks). For
stability do not use the top three courses of chimney brickwork.
1.
Fold back one end of strap as shown and pinch flat
with pliers.
2.
Pass strap around chimney and cut to size allowing a
10 cm (4) overlap on each end (this will be taken up
when operating ratchet). To assist passing the strap
around a larger chimney, pre-feed strap into a short
section of 1.25 mast then using a fishing rod action,
encircle chimney. Pull off masting to leave strap in
position.
3.
Feed folded end of strap through centre of ratchet
spindle as shown. Pull strap back so that folded
end acts as a hook.
4.
Feed other end of strap through opposite side of ratchet
spindle and fold back around ratchet spindle as shown.
Operate ratchet lever to tighten strap securely. Ensure
the strap stays horizontal around chimney while
operating ratchet. For final tightening, position ratchet
handle in open position as shown and push with the
palm of the hand rather than pulling from the closed
position. Fold lever flat when finished. If the strap needs
to be loosened for re-positioning, the ratchet may be
released by pulling back the spring loaded release lever
in the handle.
