2. Clean the inside of the aluminum tubing to clear out any dirt or foreign material that would

cause the aluminum tubing sections to bind during assembly. Do not use any type of oil or
general lubricant between the aluminum tubing sections. Oils or general lubricants can cause
poor electrical connections for radio frequencies.

3. Clean the outside of the aluminum tubing to clear any dirt or foreign material that would cause

the clamps to malfunction during assembly.

4. The use of

Jet-Lube

™

SS-30 Pure Copper Anti-Seize

is highly recommended. Jet-Lube

™

SS-

30 is an electrical joint compound which effects a substantial electrical connection between
metal parts such as telescoping aluminum tubing or other antenna pieces. Using Jet-Lube

™

SS-

30 assures high conductivity at all voltage levels by displacing moisture and preventing
corrosion or oxidation.

5. When assembling the aluminum tubing sections, ensure the area is clear of grass, dirt or other

foreign material that could cause problems during assembly of the closely fitted telescoping
sections.

Assembly

manual following the complete detailed parts list.

Note:

Jet-Lube

™

SS-30

Anti-Oxidant should be used between all antenna element sections.

SS-30 should also be used on all

coil clamps, element clamps, bolts and

stainless steel threaded hardware

to provide good electrical contact, prevent galling,

allowing easier disassembly and to ensure proper tightening.
