Initial inspection
Inspect the cases immediately upon receipt for evidence of damage during transport. If the
shipping material is severely damaged or water stained, request that the carrier's agent be
present when opening the cases. Save all packing material for future use.
After unpacking the system, inspect it thoroughly for hidden damage and loose
components or fittings. If the contents are incomplete, if there is mechanical damage or
defect, or if the system does not work properly, notify your dealer.

To assemble the EXPLORER 3075GX
3.2.1
Prerequisites
Wind speed considerations
The antenna is designed to operate under wind speeds of 48 km/h (30 mph) gusting up to
72 km/h (45 mph) while anchored and survive winds of 100 km/h (62 mph) gusting up to
129 km/h (80 mph) while anchored. Note that the antenna may point away from the
satellite in winds blowing faster than the operational wind speed limit.
WARNING!
To avoid electric shock, do not apply power to the system
if there is any sign of shipping damage to any part of the front or rear
panel or the outer cover. Read the safety summary at the front of this
manual before installing or operating the system.
Important
Do not assemble or operate the terminal at wind speeds exceeding the
operational wind speeds. In case the wind speeds exceed the survival wind
speed limit while the antenna is already assembled or operational,
disassemble and pack the antenna.
