appropriate adapter (supplied) in the standoff bracket.
Tools required: Drill and drill bit for ¼” screws;
screwdriver; wrench or pliers
Installation Instructions
Choose an antenna mounting location that is as high as feasible,
as free as possible from obstructions, and as far as possible from
other antennas and strong sources of RF.
1. Using the base of the Swivel Mount as a template, mark the
location for the four mounting holes. Drill ¼” holes.
Note: When drilling fiberglass, place a wooden backup block
behind the surface if possible, to minimize push-through
damage.
2. Attach the Swivel Mount to the mounting surface using
hardware (sold separately) that is applicable to the mounting
surface.
IMPORTANT: If the thickness of the mounting
surface is not adequate to support the antenna under
expected stress, a wooden back-up pad (not supplied)
should be applied underneath the mounting surface
during installation.
3. Assemble the antenna to the Swivel Mount, being careful not to
damage the antenna’s cabling, if any.
4. Loosen the wing nut on top of the Standoff Bracket and slide
the retainer bar out of the way. Gently place the antenna in its
mounting position in the U-shaped opening in the bracket. For
1 1 /
8
” and 1” antennas, put the appropriate reducing adapter
(supplied) in the opening.
5. Rotate the retainer bar over the antenna to lock it in place.
6. Using the Standoff Bracket itself as a template, mark the position
for its mounting holes.
7. Drill ¼” mounting holes, and install the bracket using stainless
steel hardware appropriate to the mounting surface (hardware
sold separately).
8. Tighten the wing nut to secure the antenna in the bracket. The
completed installation should attach the antenna firmly to the
mounting surface, leaving no “play” between the antenna and
the standoff bracket.
