Installation Procedure
1) Select a flat and secure site to install the antenna base plate.
2) Place the base plate so the outside holes are positioned over the brick surfaces. Do not drill
into the mortar between the bricks.
3) Using a carpenter’s level, plumb the antenna mast in at least two different locations on the
side of the mast, as shown. These two measurements should be at right angles to each other. If
the mast is plumb (aligned vertically with the bubble level), go to step 5. Otherwise, loosen
the pivot bolt and adjustment nuts (see diagram).
4) Rotate the mast until it is plumb with the level, then tighten the pivot bolt and alignment nuts.
If you are still unable to align the mast with the level, try using wooden shims. If they do not
correct the problem you will need to find another site to install the antenna.
5) Use a pencil to mark the location of the top left outside hole of the base plate (see diagram)
onto the brick surface.
6) Set the mast aside and drill a ½-inch x 3-inch hole where you made the pencil mark.
7) Clean out the hole and insert an expansion anchor. The anchor should fit snugly, so you may
have to use a hammer to gently tap the anchor until it is flush with the brick surface.
