6. Now, collapse the antenna sections. Hold the base tube firmly in one hand
and grab and twist the section above the base tube while pushing it toward
the base tube until the tube collapses into the base tube.
7. Before collapsing any other sections, pull the vertical element wire out of the
bottom of the base tube.
8. Thread the wire through the small hole in the end cap center piece and then
screw the bottom end cap back onto the base tube.
9. Stay at the base tube and collapse the remaining antenna sections one-by-
one by twisting and pushing them into the base tube.
NOTE: Be sure to keep an eye on the vertical element wire to ensure
that it does not get caught in any of the collapsing sections.
10. After all of the sections are in the base tube, push the rubber end cap
into the top of the base tube.
11. Wind the vertical element wire around the two base tube tabs and
you're ready to go!
MAINTENANCE
The S9v requires little, if any, maintenance. The S9v is finished with a durable
painted surface, but it is subject to oxidation – just like an aluminum antenna. If
you notice oxidation (color becomes lighter), use a soft cloth and Armor All
restore the finish. Automotive spray wax is also an excellent product to seal and
protect the finish. The S9v may also be repainted, if desired, using a quality
exterior spray paint such as Krylon
