Assembly - Elements to Boom
In the following steps, each element and the element compensator will be assembled onto the boom.
You will find that assembly will be much easier if the boom is supported by a saw horse or similar
support at either end. Refer to the pictorial on the pullout sheet and the ELEMENT POSITION
page at the end of this instruction for proper placement.
NOTE:
The elements may be slid through both clamps after they are installed.
IMPORTANT:
LARGE ELEMENT SADDLES ARE USED TO SECURE THE TWO 20 METER
ELEMENTS TO THE BOOM. THE REMAINING ELEMENTS ARE SECURED WITH SMALL
ELEMENT SADDLES.
