  • Page 6: Important Safety Precautions

    IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Many do-it-yourself and professional antenna installers are injured or killed each year by electric shock, because they fail to recognize overhead wires as being potentially lethal. Touching any part of the antenna mast or guy wire to these overhead wires is the same as touching the wires with your bare hand. A very serious shock is almost sure to result when contacting an electrical wire.
