MANUAL LOWERING TO PARK POSITION
MANUAL LOWERING
1. In the centre of the axis (arrowed) there are two plastic
caps, one to the left and one to the right. Lever this off with
a narrow slot-head screwdriver.
2. Behind this, each jointed socket carries a central M10 cap
screw (8 mm across
fl
ats); and one of the two sockets
carries an additional 2 M6 cap screws (5 mm across
fl
ats).
Unscrew each of these four screws.
3. Caution! Secure and support the antenna to prevent it
tipping over. The connection to the rocker can suddenly
come loose during the next step (item 4). It is then no
longer connected to the turntable!
4. Screw an M12 screw into each thread (minimum length:
60 mm). Screwing in the M12 screw pushes the rocker off
the taper seating on the tapered shaft and releases the
engagement.
Important: Screw the screw in only as far as necessary
to free the rocker from engagement on the tapered
shaft!
5. Tilt the antenna into the park position (horizontal position).
6. Remove the M12 screw.
7. Screw the M10 screws on each side back in again, and also
the two M6 screws on the one side, and tighten them.
8. Replace the plastic caps.
Loosening the rocker from the taper shaft causes the rocker
zero point position to be lost. The defect must be eliminated
and the rocker recalibrated by an authorised dealer!
9. Consult an authorised dealer.
