Low profile bracket on small diameter pole
1 Fix the low profile bracket to the back of the ODU using the M6 bolts and washers provided.
Tighten the four bolts to a torque setting of 5.0 Nm (3.7 lb ft).
2 Pass the M8 coach bolts through the square holes in the hinged portion of the bracket. Close the
bracket. Two M6 bolts should pass through slots in the fixed portion of the bracket. Ensure that
the spring and plain washers of the M6 bolts are on the outside of the bracket assembly. Tighten
the four M6 bolts to ensure that the bracket cannot open accidentally.
3 Hoist the ODU to the mounting position.
4 Attach the bracket to the pole using the bracket clamp, washers and M8 nuts.
5 Adjust the azimuth to achieve visual alignment. Tighten the two M8 bracket nuts to a torque
setting of 8.0 Nm (6.0 lb ft). Do not over-tighten these nuts as this may lead to failure of the
assembly.
6 Adjust the elevation to achieve visual alignment. Tighten the four M6 bolts to a torque setting of
5.0 Nm (3.7 lb ft).
