Ladder safety - always read and follow the manufacturer’s instruction label affixed to the ladder.
■
When working on installations outside, beware of overhead power lines.
■
Observe safe working practices, tread carefully and ensure adequate lighting is available in loft

■
To avoid injury always route cables or wiring carefully.
■
Always follow manufacturer’s operating and safety instructions before using tools and/or equipment.

SAFETY FIRST - PLEASE READ
Turn on your TV set. Refer to manufacturer’s instructions
to tune your TV into the available digital or analogue
channels. Select a tuned-in analogue channel.
Next, carry out the following procedures:
1. Turn your aerial to the LEFT until you lose the picture
(if alone turn the volume up and turn until you hear a
reduction in sound quality).
2. Remember this position and turn your aerial to the
RIGHT until you lose the picture/sound again.
3. Now point the aerial in the centre of these two points
and you will receive optimum reception.

TYPICAL AERIAL MOUNTING APPLICATION EXAMPLES
WALL AND LOFT FIXING KITS ARE AVAILABLE FROM WILKINSON (INCLUDES 10M COAXIAL CABLE)
You should mount your aerial as high as possible on either a chimney, on an external wall,
or in the loft. Remember, that in general, TV pictures improve with height and the less
obstructions between the aerial and the transmitter the better.
Now point your aerial in the direction of the transmitter by looking at neighbours aerials and
copy the direction they are pointing. If you decide to fit the aerial in your loft, special care
should be taken when walking in the roof space.
