3.4.3. Sub-assemble the 168" Radome Assembly
Refer to the Radome Assembly drawing for your system and the procedure below. It is best to have at least
TWO people sub-assembling the radome, one working from the inside and the other outside. Sub-assemble
the sections of the radome on a clean, flat location that is free of rocks & debris (ie concrete) to assure a
horizontal alignment of the panels.
NOTE: Unless otherwise indicated, all nuts and bolts should be assembled
with Loctite 242 or its equivalent.
Apply a good 3/8 inch bead of
silicon sealant to seal the
centerline of the two adjoined
halves of the base pan to keep
wind, water and dirt from
getting into the radome from
underneath.
Install the Base Hatch and
clamp the latches from the
under-side.
