INSTALLATION
PROPER INSTALLATION IS IMPORTANT. IF YOU NEED ASSISTANCE, C ONSULT A CONTRACTOR
ELECTRICIAN OR TELEVISION ANTENNA INSTALLER (CHECK WITH YOUR LOCAL BUILDING SUPPLY,
OR HARDWARE STORE FOR REFERRALS). TO PROMOTE CONFIDENCE, PERFORM A TRIAL
WIRING BEFORE INSTALLATION.

Feed the teminal lug end of the 2-conductor cable
through the rubber boot and connect the lugs to the
terminals on the bottom of the wind speed sensor.
(DO NOT adjust the nuts that are already on the
sensor). The polarity does not matter.
Slide the stub mast through the rubber boot and insert
the stub mast into the bottom of the wind speed sensor.
Secure with the cotter pin. Coat all wire connections
with silicone sealant and slip the boot over the sensor.
Secure the sensor and the stub mast to your
antenna mast (not supplied) with the two hose clamps.
Radio Shack and similar stores have a selection of
antenna masts and roof mounting brackets. Choose
a mount that best suits your location and provides at least
eight feet of vertical clearance above objects on the roof.
Determine where you are going to locate both the rooftop
sensor and the read-out.

Secure the wire to the building using cable clips (do not use
regular staples). Form a drip loop where the wire enters the
hole drilled through exterior wall. Caulk the hole when done.

Feed the cable through the wall to where the read-out is going
to be located. Attach the wires to the rear of the read-out as
shown. (Do NOT adjust the nuts that are already on the meter).
The polarity does not matter.
Mount the read-out directly over the cable feed-thru-hole
to avoid crimping the wire under the lip. We recommend
mounting the read-out on one of our pre-drilled and
centered wood panels.
