material and free of burrs.
(8) Assemble the second antenna section onto the base section and tighten to align the
arrows at the joint using the strap wrench supplied (item 6, Table 5.1). Install the
setscrews and seal with the sealant provided (items 7 and 8, Table 5.1).

the top of the third section. Install the setscrews provided (item 8, Table 5.1).
(11) If the antenna was ordered with a Top-Hat, install and tighten the 8 Whiskers
(item 5, Table 5.1) into the threaded holes found below the Valcosphere.
(12) The antenna now is ready to raise to its final position.
(13) Tie the rope (from gin pole eye) to a point about halfway up the second section
(see Figure 4.1). A timber hitch knot is recommended.
(14) Erect antenna by applying a gradual and constant pull on the rope referred to as
the “Pulling Force” (a winch or vehicle is recommended).
(15) Once the antenna is in the vertical position, insert retainer pin back into hinge
plate, secure with tension pin. Use bolts (supplied) to secure upper and lower
plates of the hinge plate together.
(16) Remove the gin pole. Electrical connections can now be made.

feedpoint. Depending on the options chosen during purchase, the feedpoint may be an
acorn screw and lock-washer located approximately 18 inches up from the base or it may
be a threaded post out the bottom of the antenna.
