Installing the Az/El and 
reflector bracket 
assembly
Follow these steps to install the Az/El and reflector bracket 
assembly onto the mast:
1. Before you install the Az/El and reflector bracket assembly 
onto the mast pipe, use a bubble level to make sure the mast is 
plumb. 
Check the mast at two perpendicular locations, as shown in 
Figure 14.   
2. Slide the canister of the Az/El and reflector bracket assembly 
down onto the mast.
Figure 15 shows the Az/El and reflector bracket assembly on 
the mast.   
Note:
The mast must be plumb. The antenna assembly 
cannot be adjusted to correct for a mast that is not plumb.
