1 page 1 of 9 Description The mount is designed to attach the antenna to a vertical tower pipe of diameter 115mm. The mount also provides adjustment ranges of ±15 fine elevation and ±180 ( ±12 fine) azimuth. Notice The installation, maintenance, or removal of antenna systems requires qualified, experienced personnel. Andrew installation instructions have been written for such personnel. Antenna systems should be inspected once a year by qualified personnel to verify proper installation, maintenance, and condition of equipment. Andrew disclaims any liability or responsibility for the results of improper or unsafe installation practices. 3 NOTICE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY BEFORE ASSEMBLY FULLY ASSEMBLED ANTENNAS 1 2 MATERIAL CHECK Unpack all materials and inspect for any shipment damage.
