Installation Procedure
1) Select a secure site to install the satellite dish antenna base plate.
Wall mounting on the side of your house. Locate a
wall stud onto which you can install the antenna base
plate as shown. Wall studs can most easily be found by
looking for the line of nails that shows where siding is
attached to the house or by using a stud finder.
2) Place the base plate so the center holes align with the centerline of the rafter or stud (see
diagram). While holding the base plate in place, use a pencil to mark the location of the top
center hole onto the mounting surface. This mark indicates where you will be drilling later.
3) Using a carpenter's level, plumb the antenna mast in at least two different locations on the
side of the mast, as shown. These two measurements should be at right angles to each other. If
the mast is plumbed (aligned vertically with the bubble level), go to step 5. Otherwise, loosen
the pivot bolt and adjustment nuts (see diagram).
