Figure 13. Attach the RAU to the pole

The RAU is approximately 750 cm (29.5 inches) tall and weighs
3.04 kg (6.7 lb.), not including cables or mounting hardware. The
RAU can be mounted to a user-provided pole. The chosen pole must
be capable of supporting the RAU and associated cabling during
periods of severe inclement weather.

The installation kit contains the appropriate connectors for
mounting the RAU to a pole ranging in size from 3.8 cm (1.50 inch)
OD through 4.8 cm (1.90 inch) OD. The kit does not include the pole.
To install the RAU on a pole, you will need the U bolt, assorted
screws, and the metal mount (2 pieces). Figure 13 shows a typical
pole mount.
You will need a #2 Phillips screwdriver, a torque wrench, and a 9/16
socket wrench.
W arning
Ensure that the RAU and the pole are located a safe distance
from AC power lines. Use caution when working with ladders
and other equipment around power lines.
Caution
While installing the RAU on the pole, support the RAU until all
mounting hardware is in place and secured, and the RAU is
securely mounted on the pole.
1. Take the larger piece of the mount (mounting bracket A on
Figure 13) and use the short M6 x 16 mm screws to attach the
mount directly to the RAU, using the holes provided on the back
of the RAU.
Washers are provided for the short M6 x 16 mm screws. Place
the split lock washer next to the screw head followed by the flat
washer before inserting the screws. Tighten the M6 x 16 mm
screws to 300 ± 30 N-cm (26.6 ± 2.7 in lb). Using Figure 13 as a
placement guide, be sure that the large oval holes on the
mounting pieces and the RAU are lined up.
2. Washers are provided for the long M6 x 60 mm screws. Place the
split lock washer next to the screw head followed by the flat
washer before inserting the screws. Using the smaller piece of
mount (mounting clamp B on Figure 13), insert the two long M6
screws through it. As shown in Figure 13, connect the mounting
clamp B with mounting bracket A using the long M6 screws to
connect the two pieces.
