Installing ODUs 6–9
RT installation
3. Place the mount on the mast, as shown in figure 6-7.
The fine azimuth adjuster must be on the side of the
mount opposite the HT direction, as illustrated in figure
6-7. This allows you to make azimuth and elevation
adjustments from behind the antenna, so you can stay out of
the beam area.
To get the azimuth adjuster on the side opposite the HT
direction, you may have to turn the entire mount 180°,
depending on whether the ODU will be mounted to the left
or right of the mast.
(If you are facing the mast interface—as a reference—it
doesn’t matter whether the mount swings open to the right
or to the left, as long as the azimuth adjuster is opposite the
HT direction.)
4. Swing the clamp toward the interface until you can
“capture” the clamp by swiveling the free–swinging bolts
into the two slots in the clamp, as shown in figure 6-7.

5. Finger tighten the four mast clamp nuts.
Tighten the nuts enough to hold the mount to the mast, but
leave them loose enough so you can smoothly pivot the
mast interface and mast clamp around the mast to permit
coarse azimuth adjustment.
(You fully tighten the mast clamp nuts later.)
