4.3.3 Placing Antenna on Mounting Plate

1. Fasten the lifting straps (separate purchase) to the antenna unit. Check the condition of the lifting strap

and ensure the shackle is tightened up. Lift the antenna above the mounting plate using a crane and

carefully lower down the antenna toward the mounting plate.

2. Check the Arrow Mark on the bottom radome.

3. Place the antenna on the mounting plate. Align the Arrow Mark to the True North point (marked in the

previous step) of the mounting plate. The antenna must be correctly aligned during installation or after

major repairs to perform properly.
