6. Open each seam wide enough to install a good
bead of silicone caulk. Working from top to
bottom apply Loctite to and then firmly tighten
all of the bolts in that seam (smaller dual beads
of caulking can be applied from outside and
inside if you prefer).
7. Clean excess caulking off of the flange areas inside and outside the radome.
8. Repeat caulking, closing and cleaning the vertical flanges until all of the upper panel
seams are closed.
9. Remove tape from the vertical seams.
10. Apply a 3/8” layer of caulking to the under-side
of the perimeter flange of radome cap.
11. (Outside person) Climb onto the upper panel
assembly, have someone (third person required
only for this step) hand the cap to the person
on top of the radome.
12. Insert the cap into the top of the radome with
a twisting rotation. This will evenly spread the
caulking and align the bolt holes inside the
radome top (coordinate with the person inside
the radome).
13. (Inside Person) Install the radome cap using
the provided hardware. CAUTION: Do NOT
over tighten the hardware. Only tighten until
the fiberglass STARTS to flex.
14. Apply additional caulking to fill gaps between
the upper panels and the cap.
15. Clean off excess caulking.
16. The upper section of the radome is now
complete.
17. Place short pieces of 2”x4” boards under the
perimeter of the radome top to raise it up off
of the ground.
Install 4 radome lifting brackets (PN 131514-2, shown
here, can be purchased separately), or other lifting
arrangement, to four opposite vertical flange mounting
points (every other vertical flange).
18. Hold the bracket under the bottom flange and
install a bolt and fender washer down through
the hole on one side of the vertical seam,
through the slot on that side of the bracket and
tighten a nut on the underside of the bracket
