Adjusting antenna azimuth and elevation
1037749-0001 Revision F
Coarse azimuth adjustment
Make coarse azimuth adjustment as follows:
1.
Loosen the three Az/El canister nuts shown in Figure 33 enough to allow the
antenna assembly to rotate freely on the mast.

2.
Holding the reflector bracket, point the antenna reflector as accurately as
possible in the direction indicated on the installation reference sheet.
3.
Tighten the three Az/El canister nuts just enough so the antenna does not
rotate freely.
Fine azimuth adjustment
For fine azimuth adjustment, use the azimuth adjustment bolt:
1.
Make sure the Az/El canister nuts are tight enough to prevent the antenna
from rotating on the mast.
2.
Using a ½ inch wrench, rotate the azimuth adjustment bolt shown in Figure 32
in either direction to achieve the desired azimuth angle.
3.
When azimuth is set as desired, lock down the four nuts under the azimuth
base and fully tighten the three Az/El canister nuts.
