G-5500 Antenna Azimuth-Elevation Rotators & Contoroller Instruction Manual
ROTATOR INSTALLATION
The maximum safe load of the G-5500 depends
on the physical size of the antenna, method and
quality of mechanical installation, and maxi-
mum wind velocity at the installation site.
Notice that the preferred mounting method re-
quires that each antenna be attached to the
boom at its center of gravity, with the boom
then attached to the elevation rotator at its cen-
ter of gravity. This minimizes stress on the
rotator and supporting structure, especially
during strong winds.
The azimuth rotator may be mounted at the top
of the mast together with the elevation rotator,
or separately inside of a supporting tower. The
latter method is generally stronger, and prefer-
able in high wind locations or for large anten-
nas, but requires some additional hardware not
supplied with the G-5500 kits.
Mounting the Rotators Together
NOTE
: If the elevation rotator is to be mounted
on the mast alone, skip this section and see
“Mounting the Rotators Separately”.
1.
Bolt the U-bracket to the top of the azi-
muth rotator using four M8x16 bolts,
spring washers and flat washers.
2.
Insert the elevation rotator into the U-
bracket, then fasten the elevation rotator
using four M8x25 bolts, spring washers
and flat washers.
