1. Cut the guy-wire cable into three equal length pieces.
2. Loop one end of each guy-wire through a Bracket eye-bolt and clamp the
guy-wire using one of the Clamps provided.
3. Install the Bracket on the tripod mast about six inches (15 cm) from the
top of the mast then loosely tighten the bracket bolts that lock it to the
mast.
4. Insert the mast into the Tripod and rotate the mast assembly until the
bracket eye-bolts all line-up with a tripod leg then loosely tighten the mast
collar bolts on the tripod.
5. Tighten the guy-wire Bracket bolts until they deform the mast by
dimpling the surface to assure the Bracket does not slide when the
turnbuckles are tightened.
6. Unscrew the turnbuckle until approximately 80% of both eye bolt threads
extend beyond the turnbuckle body.
7. Hook an S-hook to an eyelet on each of the tripod feet. Alternatively, the
S-hooks can be connected to user-supplied eye-bolts set into a concrete
pad or another fixed structure.
8. One at a time, grasp a guy-wire and loop it around its corresponding S-
hook to roughly determine its correct length then cut the guy-wires to
eliminate any excess length.
9. Hook the unattached end of each S-hook to an eyebolt on the end of a
turnbuckle.
10. Loop the free end of each guy-wire through its respective turnbuckle eye-
bolt and pull it tightly then clamp the guy-wire using one of the Clamps
provided.
