ASSEMBLING THE ANTENNA SEGMENTS The antenna segments are attached with brackets and wingnuts. These brackets may be already attached or they may be in the parts bag. If they are attached, start by loosening the wingnuts attached to the brackets to allow the bracket to spread wide.
ATTACHING THE REFLECTORS The back end of the antenna (where the elements are most tightly spaced) has a wingnut and bolt. Remove these two items and set them aside. Place the reflector brackets on either side of the antenna and connect the bolt and wingnut, leaving it loose.
ATTACHING THE MOUNT mount uses same connection system as the rest of the antenna but the brackets only have one set of holes. This lets you attach the mount anywhere on the antenna for proper balancing. Start by loosening the wingnuts so the bracket can fit around the antenna.

ATTACHING THE MAST BRACKET Now, disassemble mast bracket if it is pre-assembled, as shown. Put this part of the bracket on the mount. It mounts sideways. Note at the top of the photo you see the bottom of the antenna. This is to allow it to properly mount to the mast.

FINISHING UP Mount the antenna on a mast by sliding the mast mount over the mast and tightening the clamps onto the mast. Attach your antenna cable to the bottom of the antenna, using the supplied weatherproof boot to shield the connection.
