Preparation for Shipment

If it is necessary to repack the antenna unit for shipment, the
shipping restraints removed during installation must be
replaced. Follow these steps to reinstall the restraints.
1. Rotate the antenna unit so that the LNB is facing
away from the baseplate connectors.
2. Attach the three restraints to the baseplate using
the 1 ⁄ " -20 x 5 ⁄ " hex screws and washers (provided
4 8
as part of the kitpack) and nuts (removed from the
shipping restraints during installation) as pictured
in Figure 5-8.
3. Place the antenna bracket on the forward shipping
restraint.
4. Secure the forward restraint and bracket by
wrapping two tie-wraps around the bend in the
forward restraint and the antenna bracket (at the
end of the LNB bracket).
