FB607231A EZY HD 900mm GUTTER MOUNT
The Ezy HD Gutter Mount has been designed for 80cm satellite dishes for installations to
AS 4055-2012 Wind Classification N5/C3 (W60).
Installation Requirements
Select installation site in consultation with the customer taking the following points into
consideration:
• Clear signal path to satellite.
• Structural soundness of the rafters and fascia at the installation point. Rigidity of the
mount installation is imperative.
• Clear of power lines or other potential hazards.
• Clear cable run to set top box.
• The mount should not be installed where the joint of a fascia is between 2 rafters.
In this situation, an adjacent pair of rafters should be used.
• The mount is not to be installed where debris from surrounding trees can accumulate in
the gutter.
• The minimum gap between the bottom of the mast base plate and the bottom of the
gutter must exceed 30 mm.
Installation Procedure
1. Slip three (3) tiles to expose two (2)
rafters as per figure1.
Figure 1
2. Assemble the two sections of the mount
as shown in figure 2.
Figure 2
3. Place the assembly into the roof so that both plates are firm against the rafters. Check
how the tile sits on the tongue of the mount. If the tongue causes the tile to sit
incorrectly, then it may be necessary to notch the fascia to allow the mount to sit lower
so that the tongue clears the tile.

2
If notching is required:
a) Mark the width and position of the
tongue on the top of the fascia...
The width must not exceed 78mm.
Figure 3
b) Make 2 cuts 12mm deep and chisel
out between the cuts.
The cuts must not be deeper
than 12mm.
Figure 4
Note: Care should be taken not to damage the gutter, which may allow water
ingress into the roof space.
4. Shape sealing foam strip (supplied) to fit
into the cut in the Fascia . Reposition the
bracket assembly and push down firmly
into the sealing foam to seal the cut
against water ingress.
Check mast is vertical using a spirit level.
See figure 5.
5. Fasten end plates to the rafters:
• To fasten the mount in place it is necessary to
use one fastener in each group of three holes in the end plates.
• The hole selected in each group
must be at least 25mm from either edge of the rafter.
• Ensure the Tek screw nearest the fascia, is
NO less than 65mm from the front of the fascia.
• To avoid splitting hard wood rafters it may be necessary
to pre-drill for these screws with a 4mm drill bit.
Note: All six of the 14x40 type
17 self-drilling woodscrews
must be used on every
installations; three at each end.

that can’t be clipped must be secured to adjoining tiles, using a suitable silicon
adhesive/sealant.
