1. Loosen the two screws on the terminal board cover on the
bottom of the antenna. This will expose a threaded coaxial
receptacle and three special screw-type terminals.
2. Screw the supplied coaxial cable’s lead-in connector onto the
threaded terminal.
Caution:
Be sure the center conductor of
the cable is in the hole of the F-connector before tightening.
3. Your antenna may have either Yellow/Black/White wires
or Red/Black/Blue rotator wires.
Note:
Only loosen clamping terminals up to two turns, as
backing them out further can cause the screws to become
unattached from their internal mounts.
1. Attach the antenna mounting bracket to the four slotted
metal inserts on the bottom of the antenna using the four
screws and lockwashers provided.
(
Do not unscrew recessed
metal inserts. They hold the internal motor in place.)
2. Insert the U-bolt into the mounting bracket using the two
washers and hex nuts. Do not tighten.

Fasten the Yellow or Red rotator control wire to terminal
1, the Black wire to terminal 2, and the White or Blue wire
to terminal 3. Insert the wire between the upper and lower
clamps of the terminal body. Tighten the screw as shown.
4. Replace the terminal cover so that the coaxial cable comes
out through the notch. Tighten the terminal cover screws.
This will clamp the rotator cable in place.
