4.4. Optional Pole Mounting Kit
Optionally, a pole-mounting kit can be ordered separately from the supplier (ID 7837870).
The recommended pole diameter for this mounting kit is 40 - 80mm. To mount an antenna
to a pole using this kit, proceed as follows:
1. Insert the four bolts M6 (2) with four of the plain washers (5) into the antenna mounting
bracket (see detailed illustration of bolt head).
2. Insert the pole mounting bracket into these four bolts and place the plain & spring
washers (4&5) and the M6 nuts (3) over each bolt (detailed illustration).
3. Tighten the four M6 nuts observing the specified torque of 12 Nm.
4. Hang in the safety wire (6) and attach it to a suitable structure for fall protection.

4.5. Outdoor Installation
Note: For outdoor use we recommend removing the plugs from the drain holes if the
antenna is exposed to high humidity or rainfall.
: Do not remove the plugs if the antenna is mounted other than bottom
down, that means the drain holes showing to the ground. For the top and bottom of the
antenna observe the arrow labeling at the rear side. Otherwise water might penetrate into
and therefore damage the antenna.
Remove the plugs from the drain holes at the bottom of the antenna with a knife or a flat
screwdriver. The below indicates the location of the drain holes, design and/or size of the
antenna may be different.
