The 2x2 UBR with integrated dish antenna has four studs on its
backside for attaching the mounting bracket. The mounting
bracket is designed in such a way that UBR can be mounted on
the pole with the help of its attaching parts. It provides freedom
of movement to the UBR for link alignment even after mounting.
Insecure mounting might damage the device or cause injury.
HFCL cannot be held liable for any damages incurred during the process.
Note:

07
Attach the hood to the UBR using four M6 flange nuts.
Refer to the image below:
Make sure that the cut in the hood aligns with lug connector.
Attach the pole clamp assembly with a riveted U clamp with
the help of three M6 hex bolts and split spring lock washers
2.
Mount this assembly from the previous step on UBR using
three M6 hex bolts and split spring lock washers.

For Link Alignment
Slightly loosen the M6 bolts, and rotate brackets to align the pointer
mark, at an optimum angle to set the azimuth and elevation. Once
the desired setting is attained, securely tighten the six bolts using a
compatible spanner.
