Locate the skew plate into the antenna rear bracket, with the side stamped “A” facing towards
the antenna rear bracket. Place an M8x20 coach bolt through the hole marked “A” and through
the corresponding hole marked “A” on the Az/El mount, locating the antenna rear bracket
between the skew plate and Az/El mount, as shown in the diagram. Loosely attach an M8 Nylon
insert hex nut. Attach the remaining 4 M8x20 coach bolts and M8 nylon insert hex nuts through
the skew plate and corresponding holes on the Az/El mount, securing the antenna rear bracket
between the Az/El mount and skew plate. Use the table on page 16 to calculate the skew
angle. Rotate the antenna rear bracket to the calculated skew angle, and tighten the M8 nylon
insert hex nuts to using the 1/2” ring spanner. Set the Az/El mount elevation to the approximate
elevation of the satellite.
Referring to the skew angle calculator on page 16 and the skew adjustment process on page
11, set the skew angle for the satellite antenna.
