Inside the antenna, four shipping restraints
prevent the antenna assembly from moving
during shipment. Follow these steps to remove
these shipping restraints.

a. Remove the six #10-32 Phillips screws

securing the radome to the baseplate.

Carefully lift the radome straight up until

clear of the antenna assembly and set it aside

in a safe place.

TIP: If you keep the radome topside, secure it with
a lanyard to prevent it from falling overboard.

b. Using wire cutters, cut and remove the

elevation shipping restraint securing the

reflector to the antenna frame (see Figure 17).

c. Cut and remove the tie-wrap securing the

antenna’s LNB to the reflector (see Figure 18).

d. Using a 9/16" socket with 6" extension,

remove the two 3/8" bolts securing the

azimuth shipping restraints to the antenna

baseplate (see Figure 19). Remove the

restraints.

Once you have removed the restraints,

handle the antenna very carefully. With the

restraints removed, the internal antenna

assembly rotates freely and, if not handled

properly, can damage the limit switch.
