care not to over tighten cable clips. • This product may contain

DISH POSITIONING AND ASSEMBLY
1) Identify your South Facing Wall: The dish needs to be on a South facing wall in order to pick up the Astra 2A, 2B,
2D and Eurobird1 satellites. Identify your south facing wall and look to mount your satellite dish on the outside of
the wall, at the nearest point to your main TV. Tip: Look at your neighbours' houses someone is sure to have Sky, see
which way their dish is facing. If none of your neighbours have Sky, you can use a compass to determine which wall
faces south.
Please note that
the mounting
bracket can be
mounted on
either a wall or
Wall Mount
a flat roof.
2) Check line of sight: Make sure there are
no obstructions (trees/tall buildings) in line
between the dish and the satellites.
