Attaching
the LNB
The LNB attaches to the LNB support arm. To do this step, you will need the LNB
mounting
bolt, washer, and nut from the hardware
packet.
You will also need to
remove the LNB from the packaging.
The tools you will need are a Phillips head
screwdriver
and the tools required to install an F-type connector
(you will only need
this if the cable is not pre-terminated
with an F-fitting).
If the F-type connector
you
are using is not weatherproof,
you will also need some type of coax cable sealant. This
sealant prevents moisture from seeping into the LNB through the coaxial connector.
Most LNB failures are due to moisture penetration.
Therefore,
always use some type
of sealant or a weatherproof
connector
to protect this connection.
Use the following
steps to install the LNB onto the LNB support
arm:
1. Route the LHB cable through the foot, mast, and LNB support arm.
