Congratulations! You have now purchased the finest AZ-EL mount available. This
unit has been designed to give you the most stable system to work on a single pole
application. Assemble using these instructions. If you have any questions please
call 800-627-9443 for help.
The AZ-EL Mount is designed to go with the 3.0m, 3.7m, 3.8m, and the 4.2 meter
antennas. As all are identical in theory, we will cover the basic installation first and
address each individually as the installation requires.
PLEASE READ COMPLETE
INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION!
HD Az-El option is available for the DH 4.5m antenna.
If you will be storing the antenna for a period of time, we would prefer it to be laid flat
on a level surface. Always store the antenna on its outer lip. Shipping Warranty for
missing parts is detailed on the last page of the manual. A detailed parts list is
provided on the page prior to the “shipping warranty”. Please refer to this section
immediately on delivery.
