Safety Instructions
For safety and to achieve a good installation, please follow these safety precautions:
Consider safety and performance when selecting an installation site. Remember electric power lines and phone lines look alike.
Assume that any overhead line can cause bodily harm or death.
Call your power company and ask them to look at your proposed installation. This is important if raising a mast or tower.
When installing the device:
Do not use a metal ladder.
Do not work on a wet or windy day.
Dress properly—shoes with rubber soles and heels, rubber gloves, long-sleeved shirt or jacket.
If any part of the antenna system comes in contact with a power line, do not touch it or try to remove it yourself. Call your local
power company. They will remove it safely. If an accident occurs, call for emergency help immediately.
IMPORTANT:
Refer to Warnings and Cautions on the back page for additional information.
