LAW: Installation and installer must meet local codes and ordinances regarding safety! Installation of this product should be performed only
by a professional installer and is not recommended for consumer Do-It-Yourself installations.
DANGER: WATCH FOR WIRES! Installation of this product near power lines is extremely dangerous and must never be attempted. Installa-
tion of this product near power lines can result in death or serious injury! For your own safety, you must follow these important safety rules.
Failure to follow these rules could result in death or serious injury
1. Perform as many functions as possible on the ground
2. Watch out for overhead power lines. Check the distance to the power lines before starting installation. Stay at least 6 meters (20 feet)
away from all power lines.
3. Do not install antenna or mast assembly on a windy day.
4. If you start to drop antenna or mast assembly, move away from it and let it fall.
5. If any part of the antenna or mast assembly comes in contact with a power line, call your local power company. DO NOT TRY TO
REMOVE IT YOURSELF! They will remove it safely.
6. Make sure that the mast assembly is properly grounded.
WARNING: Assembling dish antennas on windy days is extremely dangerous and must never be attempted. Due to the surface area of the
reector, even slight winds create strong forces. For example, this antenna facing a wind of 32 km/h (20 mph) can undergo forces of
269 N (60 lb). BE PREPARED TO SAFELY HANDLE THESE FORCES AT UNEXPECTED MOMENTS. ATTEMPTING TO ASSEMBLE, MOVE OR
MOUNT A DISH ON WINDY DAYS COULD RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY. Skyware Global is not responsible or liable for damage or
injury resulting from antenna installations.
WARNING: Antennas improperly installed or installed to an inadequate structure are very susceptible to wind damage. This damage can
be very serious or even life threatening. The owner and installer assumes full responsibility that the installation is structurally sound to support
all loads (weight, wind and ice) and properly sealed against leaks. Skyware Global will not accept liiability for any damage caused by a
satellite system due to the many unknown variable applications.

Concrete: See “Ground Pole” section for quantity
M10 or #3 Rebar: See “Ground Pole” section for quantity. Deformed steel per ASTM A615, Grade 40 or 60.
SITE SELECTION
The rst and most important consideration when choosing a prospective antenna site is whether or not the area can provide an accept-
able “look angle” at the satellites. A site with a clear, unobstructed view is preferred. Also consider obstruction that may occur in the future
such as the growth of trees. Your antenna site must be selected in advance so that you will be able to receive the strongest signal available.
To avoid obstructions, etc., conduct an on-site survey with a portable antenna. The satellite antenna can be installed on a ground pole,
wall/roof mount, or non-penetrating roof mount with 2-7/8” or 3” outside diameter mast. The chosen mount type should be assembled and
in place before installing the antenna. Refer to instructions packed with mount for its proper installation. The mast pipe must be vertical and
plumb to insure ease of alignment.
As with any other type of construction, a local building permit may be required before installing an antenna. It is the property owner’s
responsibility to obtain any and all permits.
Before any digging is done, information regarding the possibility of underground telephone lines, power lines, storm drains, etc., in the
excavation area should be obtained from the appropriate agency.
Because soils vary widely in composition and load capacity, consult a local professional engineer to determine the appropriate foundation
design and installation procedure. A suggested foundation design with conditions noted is included in this manual for reference purposes
only.

ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION
Installing Az/El Cap Mount Onto Pole
The az/el cap is factory pre assembled. No
assembly is required. Before installing az/el cap
onto pole, installation mount should be in place.
Loosen (3) az/el locking nuts on pipe clamp.
Install az/el cap onto pole. If using 2 7/8”
ground pole, ensure that the inner sleeve is
inserted and that the open side is aligned with
the open side of the pipe clamp (see Bottom
View). If using 3.00” ground pole, remove inner
sleeve on pipe clamp and discard it. Position the
az/el cap in approximate azimuth setting and
equally tighten (3) clamp nuts so that cap is held
stationary on pole, but can be swiveled with
slight pressure. Tighten to approximately
2.7 N-m (2 ft-lb ).

reector and insert exposed portion of bolt into holes into Az/El
mount ange. Install 4 lock washers and hex nuts on bolts. Tighten
and torque to 15 N-m (11 ft-lb). Do not over tighten. Overtightening
bolts may damage reector. Press t hole plugs in remaining four
unused holes of the reector.
IMPORTANT: Note orientation of feed leg holes in reector rim. Top of
reector does NOT have feed leg hole.

instruction to assemble feed assembly and outdoor electronics to junction block. Tighten and torque all hardware to junction block and
reector to 5.4 N-m (4 ft-lb). Tighten two screws in junction block socket equally.
Feed Leg Installation
NOTE: Long formed end of side feed leg attaches to the reector rim, short formed end to side of feed support junction block. Assemble
bottom feed leg to bottom of reector rim. From the inside of reector rim, assemble at washer to the M6 x 16 mm hex bolt. Insert bolt
through hole in rim and attach bottom feed leg. Secure with lock washer and hex nut. NOTE: Bottom feed leg is the one with a slight bend
and a lance on one end. It is shorter than the side feed legs.

ANTENNA ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE
Satellite Alignment
Alignment with the satellite is obtained by setting polarization, elevation, and azimuth. Charts are provided in this manual to determine the
values for your earth station antenna site. “ΔL” is the dierence between the earth station antenna site longitude and the satellite longitude.
Use “ΔL” and your earth station latitude to obtain polarization, elevation or azimuth setting.
Polarization of Feed
Loosen feed Horn clamp bolts and turn feed clockwise or counterclockwise,
depending on being east or west of the satellite as shown on Chart 1. For coarse
setting, align marks on the horn scale. Polarization chart assumes antenna system
polarization is transmit vertical and satellite vertical Pol is perpendicular to plane
of geostationary arc. For horizontal transmit of antenna, feed must be rotated 90°
from values shown. (Starting point for polarization adjustment is 0°, as shown. Use
a signal strength measuring device for nal polarization setting and tighten horn
clamp bolts to 5.4 N-m (4 ft-lb).

Elevation - Initial Setting
Use Chart 2 and determine your elevation setting. Loosen
elevation locking bolts, located in curved slots, on both sides.
Turn elevation adjustment bolt clockwise to decrease elevation
or counterclockwise to increase elevation. Position the elevation
alignment arrow with the appropriate mark on the housing at the
desired elevation reading. Scale is in 1 degree increments. This
will be an approximate setting. Snug tighten elevation locking
bolts. (Finger tighten only).

Azimuth - Initial Setting
Refer to the azimuth value determined on
chart 3. Values in chart must be adjusted
for magnetic deviation for your location
for correct compass reading. Rotate the
reector and az/el mount, on the pipe,
pointing it to the compass reading for
your location and satellite. Sweep in
azimuth for signal. If desired signal is not
located, increase or decrease elevation
setting and repeat the azimuth sweep.
Tighten progressively (1/8 turn each) all
three pipe clamp nuts. Repeat until 24
N-m (18 ft-lb) torque is reached.

Loosen (3) azimuth locking nuts. Note that the square
nuts are factory preset, and should not be loosened or
tightened. Turn the azimuth ne tune bolt clockwise or
counterclockwise for azimuth ne tuning.
Use a signal strength measuring device to obtain
the most accurate alignment and maximum antenna
performance. Alternate between elevation and azimuth
ne tuning to reach maximum signal strength, until
no improvement can be detected. Tighten and torque
all hardware, alternating sequence, until all bolts are
equally torqued to 24 N-m (18 ft-lb).
