Installing the antenna and radio
This chapter explains how to assemble and install the antenna, radio assembly, and
associated hardware.
Before you install the antenna, read all safety information in
Understanding
safety alert messages
on page 5.
General instructions for assembling the antenna
If you work on a roof, tower, or other high structure, or use a ladder or
scaffold to access the work site, follow these precautions to prevent personal
injury or death:
Walk only on sound roof structures.
Ensure that the antenna assembly and installation surface are structurally
sound so they can support all loads (equipment weight, ice, and wind).
Use safety equipment (e.g., a lifeline) appropriate for the work location.
Follow all manufacturer safety precautions for all safety and other
equipment used.
Perform as many procedures as possible on the ground.
To avoid electric shock, stay at least 20 ft away from power lines when
there is a chance that you or the equipment you are using could
accidentally come into contact with the power lines. Always look up and
check for overhead lines before moving a ladder.
If any part of the antenna or mount assembly comes in contact with a
power line, call the local power company to remove it.
Do not try to
remove it yourself.
If the antenna reflector contacts electric power lines,
you may be killed or seriously injured.
For pole mount installations, be sure to obtain information regarding
underground utilities in the proposed location before digging.
Call a local company that marks underground utility lines before digging to
avoid striking underground cables, pipes, or electric lines. Call
811
from
anywhere in the United States to contact a local company that does this.
