TV ANTENNA (OPTION)

Raising Antenna

Turn the elevating crank clockwise in the UP direction about thirteen turns or until some resistance
to turning is noted. (Fig. 3-20)
On Amplified models, 12-Volt DC power is required. Turn the power supply ON to use either the
front or rear TV outlet. (Fig. 3-21) Neither outlet will work unless the power supply switch is on.
Turning the power supply on sends 12-volt DC through the cable to the antenna. The voltage
energizes the transistors on the amplifier in the antenna head. The TV signal comes back down the
cable to the outlets.
After the antenna is in the full UP position, pull down on the round knob with both hands until it
disengages from the ceiling plate. Rotate the knob for best picture. (Fig. 3-22)

To Test System

1. Make sure the TV set is working properly.
2. Switch the power supply ON and OFF to see if there is a difference
in the picture quality while watching TV. If there is NO difference, refer to manufacturer's
manual for further testing procedures.
#
CAUTION: The power supply must be turned OFF when connecting/disconnecting the
cables to the power supply and antenna, but must be turned ON when testing for voltage.

Lowering Antenna

Rotate the antenna until the pointer on the directional handle aligns with the pointer on the ceiling
plate. (Fig. 3-22) Turn the elevating crank counterclockwise in the DOWN direction about thirteen
turns or until resistance is noted. (Fig. 3-20) The antenna is now locked in the travel position.
#
CAUTION: When lowering the antenna, never lower it into any position except the travel
position. Failure to lower antenna into the travel position before traveling may damage the
antenna and is not covered by warranty.
