If only 1-axis adjustment is required, remove the hardware for the 2-axis Adjustable
Mast Bracket and reassemble as shown in Fig. 5, in order to make the 1-Axis
Adjustable Mast Bracket. Note that when the antenna is mounted using the 1-Axis
Adjustable Mast Bracket, it can only be adjusted for ±30° alignment due to proximity of
the antenna surface it is to be mounted on.
