The antenna assembly is now complete. A brief overview of tracking the Clark follows. This
work requires a qualified istallation technician to insure a reliable setup.
You must first know the declination setting for your site. Pre-set this declination angle between
the pivot axis and the antenna hub by adjusting the slotted declination bracket on top of the
mount assembly. Adjust the Elevation setting to the latitude angle of your site. Peak this
elevation adjustment on on a due south satellite with satellite measuring or veiwing equipment.
Next drive the actuator to a lower look angle and peak the antenna on a known satellite by
slightly loosening the mount and rotating the antenna/mount assembly about the mast pipe.
Tighten the hardware when the signal is peaked on this lower satellite. Track the arc, if any
additinal fine adjustments are needed repeat the steps beginning with a slighly different declina-
tion setting
.
Installation is complete.
