4. Adjust the foot and mast so that when the foot
is mounted, the upper part of the mast is, as
accurately as possible, vertical. Use a plumb
line or bubble level to make sure the upper part
of the mast is vertical from at least three
readings. Alignment of the dish is nearly
impossible if the mast is not vertical.
5. Place the dish on the support arm. Align the
flathead bolts with the dish support bolt holes
on the dish supports.
6. Insert each flathead bolt into one of the holes,
and secure it by threading a lock nut and
washer onto the bolt on the back side. Do this
for all the flathead bolts.
7. Tighten the bolts so that they are snug.

with the dish attached.
8. Tilt the support bracket to the approximate
elevation of the satellites. Use the elevation
you found earlier using the
menu.

If you have the bracket with points above the
elevation washer, align the elevation marks on
the bracket with the points on the washer.
Make sure you are looking at the side with the
"46/60" lettering. The other side is for a
different-sized dish.
If you have the bracket where the edge of the
mast shows through the curved slot, align the
edge with the desired elevation mark.
