1. Secure the Antenna Feed to the Dish Reflector using the four M4
Bolts and a Phillips screwdriver.
Hardware Installation
2. Connect the RF Cables to the RF Connectors on the Antenna Feed.
Note: Do not handle the Dish Reflector by the Antenna Feed once the feed is installed.
Note: TL-ANT 2424MD doesn't require this step, please go directly to step 3.

3. Attach the Base Station to the Dish Reflector as follows:
a. Align the mounting tabs on the back of the Base Station with the
four mounting slots on the Base Station mounting bracket.
b. Slide the Base Station down until it locks into place.
4. Connect the other ends of the RF Cables to the Base Station.

6
5. Attach the Elevation Rod to the Antenna-mount Bracket using the flat
washers and nuts as shown below.
6. Attach the M10x150 Carriage Bolt Assemblies to the Antenna-mount
Bracket：
a. Remove the flat washer, spring washer, and nut that are threaded
on each M10x150 Carriage Bolt Assembly. Set them aside as they
will be used to secure the antenna to a pole in step 8.
b. Insert the four M10x150 Carriage Bolts into the Antenna-mount
Bracket.

7. Attach the Dish Reflector to the Antenna-mount Bracket:
a. Secure one M10x35 Carriage Bolt Assembly to attach the Dish
Reflector to the Elevation Rod.
b. Secure two M10x35 Carriage Bolt Assemblies to attach the Dish
Reflector to the lower section of the Antenna-mount bracket.

8. Mount the antenna assembly to the pole using the two Pole-mount
Clamps and the four sets of flat washers, spring washers and nuts of
the M10x150 Carriage Bolt Assemblies.
Note:
1. Pole diameter ranges from 1.5 in to 4.0 in.
2. Do not over-tighten these bolts and nuts to allow angle adjustment later.
3. In step 8 to 9, use the Level Vital to ensure proper alignment.

9. Adjust the antenna azimuth and elevation angles with the front facing
the intended signal receiving devices to achieve maximum signal
strength:
a. To adjust azimuth, loosen the four nuts on the Pole-mount Clamps
slightly to pivot the antenna, then tighten the nuts.
b. To adjust the elevation angle, tighten or loosen the Elevation Nuts
on the Elevation Rod to the desired tilt.
10. Slide the Protective Shroud down over the Base Station until it locks
into place.
