Warning
Installation of this product near power lines is dangerous. For your
safety, follow the installation directions.
Before you start installation, let us warn you of the danger of letting
any part of your antenna system touch electrical power lines - -
you may be killed.
It happens more often than you realize! Someone falls off of a roof or
gets the shock of their life.
Unfortunately, a good antenna site is often near electrical power
lines. If any metal antenna part touches a power line, it completes an
electrical path through the installer (that’s you!) to the ground.
Follow These Procedures for the
Safest Installation
1. Perform as much antenna assembly on the ground as possible.
2. Watch out for overhead power lines. Check the distance to the
power lines before you start installing. WE RECOMMEND YOU STAY
A MINIMUM OF TWICE THE MAXIMUM LENGTH OF THE ANTENNA
ASSEMBLY AWAY FROM ALL POWER LINES.
3. Do not use a metal ladder.
