Proceed to insert the VHF reector extensión
Cinto the Main asembly A. Secure both
parts using the screw Iand the wing nut J.
Note: Tighten the wing nut Juntil the
square carriage head of the bolt Isinks into
the aluminum and the head sits ush with
the boom. The bolt base will bite into the
aluminum, securing the joint.
Place the DUHF reector in the self-locking
clamp by inserting the open end of the
reector without the grey plastic cap on it
and with the black plastic locking mechanism
in an upward position (unlocked).
Once the reector is fully seated in the clamp
(all the way to the bottom of the slot), lock
them in place by rmly pressing down on the
black plastic latches.
An audible “click” will be heard when the
reector is securely locked in place.
Insert the UHF director Ball the way into
the position indicated on the chart. Fold it
towards the central element until you hear
the CLICK of the hook.
Insert the part of the director that does not
have a plug.
Do the same process with the lower director.

Prepare the coaxial cable as illustrated in the
diagram before terminating the coax cable
(installing the F-connector).
When using the provided weather boot and
twist-on connector on an unterminated
coaxial cable, slide the weather boot Honto
the coaxial cable and properly terminate and t
the twist-on connector Gto the coaxial cable.
Pass the cable with the connector through
the 1st slot in the lower reector.
Note: In place of the provided twist-on F-connector
a crimp-on F-connector may be used in its place if
available and the installer is familiar with this type of
connector and has the tools to properly crimp them.
Screw connector Gonto the threaded male
input connection of the dipole assembly F
and tighten with the 216120 accessory but do
not overtighten, then slide the weather boot
Hover the connector as far as it will go.
Insert the Dipole assembly Finto the antenna
orange junction box, sliding it through the
guide slot to the point where you will hear an
audible “click” indicating the dipole is latched
into place and fully seated in the main body of
the antenna.
Visually check the dipole once installed to make
sure there are no gaps and that it did fully seat.
Place the second DUHF reector in the self-
locking clamp by inserting the open end of
the reector without the grey plastic cap on it
and with the black plastic locking mechanism
in an upward position (unlocked).
Once the reector is fully seated in the clamp
(all the way to the bottom of the slot), lock
them in place by rmly pressing down on the
black plastic latches.
An audible “click” will be heard when the
reector is securely locked in place.

Place the EVHF reectors (two pieces, one
top and one bottom) in the self-locking clamp
by inserting the open end of the reector
without the grey plastic cap on it and with the
black plastic locking mechanism in an upward
position (unlocked).
Once the reectors are fully seated in the
clamp (all the way to the bottom of the slot),
lock them in place by rmly pressing down on
the black plastic latches.
An audible “click” will be heard when the
reectors are securely locked in place.

Safety Instructions:
LIGHTNING PROTECTION
If installed outdoors, be sure the antenna system is grounded so
as to provide protection against voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA70, or
CSA C22.1 sections 10, 16, and 54, of the Canadian Electrical Code,
provide information with respect to proper grounding of the mast
and supporting structure, grounding of the antenna lead-in wire to
an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location
of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes,
and requirements for the grounding electrode (see gure and
instructions).
Mount the lightning arrestor or 75 ohm coaxial grounding block as
close as possible to where the 75 ohm coaxial cable down lead enters
the house.
The ground wires for both the mast and the down lead should be
copper or aluminium wire, number eight (8) or larger.
The down lead wire from the antenna to the lightning arrestor and
the mast ground wire should be secured to the house, spaced from
four (4) to six (6) feet apart.
In the case of a “ground up” antenna installation it may not be
necessary to ground the mast if the mast extends four or more feet
in the earth. Consult a TV serviceman for the proper depth in your
location.
WARNINGS
To prevent re or shock hazard, do not expose the included power
supply to rain or moisture.
Installation of o-air antennas near power lines is dangerous. For
your safety, follow the installation instructions.
Any alteration or modication to the product or usage not in
accordance with product instructions voids the warranty.

Release the shackles from the mast clamp by
removing and saving the wing nuts. Place the
antenna assembly on the mast (not included)
and proceed to replace the shackles and
tighten the wing nuts to attach the assembly
to the mast.
The “Tilt screws” will allow you to adjust the
antenna elevation (level, up or down to
optimize the installation). Be sure to tighten
these screws once the desired antenna
position is obtained.
Tilt screws
FINAL NOTES:
- Following the provided instructions, connect the included power supply to
the antenna using the leftmost connector (closest to wall power) with an
appropriate length of 75 ohm coax, RG-6 or larger is recommended. Make
sure than any device installed between the power supply and the antenna,
such as a splitter, is DC power passing. The two connectors on the right of
the power supply are for connecting your TV’s and/or coaxial distribution.
- When aiming the antenna it may be necessary to alternate adjustments
between left and right and then tilt, several times in order to achieve peak
signal reception for the largest number of desired channels.
- The antenna will work in an un-amplied, pass-through mode, if the power
supply is not connected or power fails to reach the antenna for any reason.
However, it is recommended to always use the antenna with power applied
in order to activate the industry leading,TForce automatic gain preamp that
is built in to the antenna.
- Always be sure to follow all local, state, and national electric codes. Seek the
assistance of a local professional if needed.
