TV ANTENNA

Raising Antenna to Operating Position

Turn elevating crank clockwise in UP direction about 13 turns or until some resistance to
turning is noted. (Fig. 3-8)
On Amplified models, 12-Volt DC power is required. Turn power supply ON to use
either front or rear TV outlet. (Fig. 3-9) Neither outlet will work unless power supply
switch is on. Turning power supply on sends 12-volt DC up cable to antenna. Voltage
energizes transistors on amplifier in antenna head. TV signal comes back down cable to
outlets.
After antenna is in full UP position, pull down on round knob with both hands until it
disengages from ceiling plate. Rotate for best picture. (Fig. 3-10)

To Test System

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

Lowering Antenna to Travel Position

Rotate antenna until pointer on directional
handle aligns with pointer on ceiling plate.
Turn elevating crank counterclockwise in
DOWN direction about 13 turns or until
resistance is noted. Antenna is now locked in
travel position. (Fig. 3-11)
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.
