Support Bracket Options

External Support Bracket
The external support bracket (Figure 3-17, Figure 3-18, and Figure 3-19) is used to position and
support the mast.
The external support bracket is constructed from:
• (1) Support bracket weldment which positions the support brackets away from the support
structure
• (2) Support bracket clamps which close around the base tube and are bolted together to hold
the mast against the mounting structure
• Bearing strips attached inside the support brackets which protects the base tube from being
scraped by the support brackets and allows the mast to be rotated
• Hardware to secure the assembly together
Note: External support brackets for masts 9 inch (229 mm) base tube diameters have a brace
across the stand-off.

need to be added to allow for slight variation.
