  • Page 2 2. PACKING LIST Sl. No. Item/Description Quantity 01. Parabolic Reflector in assembled condition. 1 Set. 02. Dipole Feed complete with feed holder. 1 Each. 03. Upper Support Arm complete with “U” bolt. 1 Each. 04. Lower Support Arm complete with “U” bolt. 1 Each.
  • Page 3 7. INSTALLATION OF LOWER SUPPORT ARM: Initially the upper support arm are supplied and fixed for horizontal polarization. To change the polarization fix the lower support arm at the lower aluminum square mounting blocks that are welded on the support arc, using the supplied fasteners and other set of holes. Tighten the first nut sufficiently to take up free up/down movements of the support, than tighten the second nut against the first.
  • Page 4 11. AZIMUTH ADJUSTMENTS: Before attempting the azimuth tracking, make sure that all the locking nuts/bolts and both the “U” bolts hardware of Upper and Lower support arms are fully loose. Rotate the parabolic reflector in desired direction to obtain the maximum signal strength. Please note that the antenna has +/-5.5 degrees half power beam-width so a very fine adjustment is required.
