Initial Assembly

Caution:
Always wear protective gloves when handling the
GRP rod to prevent skin irritation.
i. Attach the mast-boom clamp assembly
to the GRP rod by passing the studs
through the holes, placing the aluminium
strip over the studs and securing with the
M6 nuts.
ii. Position the 2 aluminium tubes in the
mast to boom clamp and secure by
tightening the wing nuts so that the
aluminium tubes form a V with the
clamped ends at the bottom.
iii. Remove the protective cover from the
top of the GRP rod and slide the coax
connection box clip onto the tube.
Ensure the Pro Antennas label is the right
way up and that the box is on the
opposite side of the GRP rod to the
mast-boom clamp assembly. Replace
the protective cover on the top of the
GRP rod.
Note: The support assembly from steps i - iii does not need
to be taken apart to use the antenna in another location. It
can be transported as a complete unit.
