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.
8) Install the mast assembly onto the mounting surface using a 3-inch x ¼-20 machine screw
(see diagram). Tighten the screw enough to
secure the base plate, but leave it loose
enough to enable you to adjust the base plate.
9) Verify that the mast is still plumb and adjust if
necessary.
10) Mark the locations of the other three outside
holes on the mounting surface.
11) Remove the base plate from the brick surface.
12) Drill three ½-inch x 3-inch holes for the
outside holes.
13) Install the base plate using the 3-inch x ¼-20 machine screws and four 5/16-inch washers.
14) Tighten the four machine screws.
With the base plate and mast installed, proceed to the section titled “Attaching the Reflector Onto
the LNB Support Arm” later in this chapter.
