Bulletin 237391 Revision 'D'V ertical Antenna Mount for 2.4m (8ft) and 3m (10ft) Parabolic Antenn as Installation Instructions Description Instructions given in this bulletin apply to the mount assembly for shielded and unshielded antennas with diameters of 2.4 m (8ft) and 3 m (10ft). The mount attaches to the reflector at 3 points and is offset from the center of the reflector to accomodate the feed. The mount may be offset from either side of the feed center by 200mm (8”) and attaches to the antenna mounting pipe of the tower with 4 U-bolts. Inverting the mount position on the reflector provides the alternate offset from the feed center. The U-bolts can be loosened for coarse azimuth adjustment. A fine azimuth strut assembly is included for adjustment of azi- muth from -5° to +5°. The mount also includes an elevation assembly for adjustment of eleva tion from -5° to +5° . Shielded antennas require a fixed strut and strut bracket at the rim of the reflector for greater stability. This strut is located on the opposite side of antenna center from the azimuth adjustment strut. Notice The installation, maintenance, or removal of antenna systems requires qualified, experienced personnel. Andrew installation instructions have been written for such personnel. Antenna systems should be inspected once a year by qualified person- nel to verify proper installation, maintenance, and condition of equipment. Andrew disclaims any liability or responsibility for the results of improper or unsafe installation practices ECO 5093889 INDEX Tools Standard hand tools can be used for this installation. A ratchet and deep well wrench sockets are recommended. However, combination wrenches, box or open-end type, may be used.

Installation Instructions
DescriptionInstructions given in this bulletin apply to the mount assemblyfor shielded and unshielded antennas with diameters of 2.4 m(8ft) and 3 m (10ft). The mount attaches to the reflector at 3 pointsand is offset from the center of the reflector to accomodate thefeed. The mount may be offset from either side of the feed centerby 200mm (8”) and attaches to the antenna mounting pipe of thetower with 4 U-bolts. Inverting the mount position on the reflectorprovides the alternate offset from the feed center.
The U-bolts can be loosened for coarse azimuth adjustment. Afine azimuth strut assembly is included for adjustment of azi-muth from -5° to +5°. The mount also includes an elevationassembly for adjustment of elevation from -5° to +5°.
Shielded antennas require a fixed strut and strut bracket at therim of the reflector for greater stability. This strut is located on theopposite side of antenna center from the azimuth adjustmentstrut.
