Maintenance
Lubrication
To lubricate the elevating gear apply a liberal amount of silicone spray lubricant
to the elevating gear with the lift in the down position, then run the lift up and
down a few times to distribute lubricant over gears.
Lubricating Rotating Gear Housing
In the event that rotating the antenna becomes difficult, lubricating the bear-
ing surface between the rotating gear housing and the base plate can restore
normal operation. Any spray type silicone lubricant may be used.
