Step 4: Attach The Antenna To The Mast; Step 5: Run The Cables Through The Lnb Arm - RCA DIRECTV Installer's Manual

Step 4: Attach the Antenna to the Mast

a. Make sure that the mast is secure before setting the dish on top of it.
b. Slide the back of the antenna assembly onto the top of the mast until it stops at
the pivot bolt. You might need to loosen slightly the two azimuth/mast clamp
bolts so the antenna will go on the mast.
c. Tighten the two azimuth/mast clamp bolts and the pivot bolts just enough to
keep the antenna from moving up or down. You should still be able to move
the antenna from side to side (for azimuth alignment).

Step 5: Run the Cables through the LNB Arm

a. Push one end of the RG-6 coaxial cable(s) you plan to run to your satellite
receiver, HDTV or HD set-top converter up through the LNB Arm.
The triple-head LNB multi-switch with your antenna has four identical outputs,
each supporting one independently operating receiver. To simplify future
installation of additional receivers, you might want to route more than one
cable through the LNB Arm at this point.

Important: Before you
install coaxial cables,
look at the inside of
each cable connector
to make sure there
isn't any dirt, moisture,
or other foreign
material in the
connector. Also, make
sure the aluminum
cable shielding foil or
braid isn't touching the
copper center
conductor.
