Note:
As you raise the antenna to the
vertical position, it’s important to
also maintain the parallel
alignment between the antenna
mounting channel and the Tilt
Base backing plate to minimize
binding. Make sure the lower tilt-
base bolts are never excessively
loose before raising or lowering.
They should be first tightened
securely and then backed off no
more than 1/2 turn.
Once the antenna is fully raised, tighten the tilt base hardware (Top: two Nyloc nuts and two flange
nuts, Bottom: two Nyloc nuts.)
