Preparing and Connecting the Grounding Cable
To prepare and connect the grounding cable:
1
Prepare a 10 AWG (or thicker) grounding cable with an M6 terminal ring on one end (for connecting
to the base station) and a suitable termination on the other end according to the intended protective
ground connection. The length of the cable should be sufficient for conveniently reaching from the
base station's grounding screw to the protective ground connection.
2
Remove the nut and one of the star washers from the grounding screw.
3
Attach the M6 terminal ring to the grounding screw.
4
Attach the second star washer and firmly tighten the nut.

Attaching an Extender to the Post Clamp
(optional)
An extender (ordered separately) may be needed in the following cases:
A wall or horizontal pole installation where adjustment of the direction in the horizontal plan is
required for directing the base station towards the required coverage area. The extender may also be
used in vertical pole installations for simpler adjustment of the direction in the horizontal plan.
Installation on a post that deviates from the vertical or horizontal plane by up to +/- 15 degrees.
The extender comprises two parts:
1
A part that enables adjustment of the direction in the horizontal plane (left/right) when attached to
the post clamp
2
A part with a circular slot that enables adjustment of the direction in the vertical plane (up/down)
when attached to the first part.
