Az/El mount assembly
The Az/El mount assembly, shown in
Figure 2
on page 16, includes components that
allow you to adjust the antenna elevation and azimuth – the Az/El canister, the
elevation scale, and the azimuth and elevation adjustment tools. It also includes a
grounding screw, used to ground the assembly to the grounding block.
The Az/El canister supports the antenna and secures it to the mast. The elevation
scale is used to measure the angle of antenna elevation. The azimuth and elevation
adjustment tools are used to finely adjust the azimuth and elevation of the reflector
during antenna pointing. See the
JUPITER
Antenna Pointing Guide

for detailed instructions on how to adjust the assembly.
