Mounting the system is very easy, just follow these steps:
1 - Attach the solar sensor to the leveling plate, in its central hole. Use the black nylon screw (every sensor comes
with one, find it on its bottom) and a screwdriver.
2 - Fasten the leveling plate to the mounting bracket with the 3 long gray screws. Do not insert them too firmly,
the final adjustment is done later.
3 - Decide if you want to mount the whole structure to a vertical or horizontal pipe or mast (its outer diameter can
go from 3.3 to 5.3 cm). Depending on horizontal or vertical configuration, you will use the bottom or the side of
the mounting bracket.
4 - Place the black plastic piece in contact with the pipe. Then use the u-bolt to grab the mounting bracket to the
pipe. On both ends of the u-bolt, insert first the washers, then the lock washers and finally the nuts.
5 - Place the structure in the desired position and tighten the nuts firmly with a wrench.
