INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: HG2415Y
Location
1. The antenna receives and transmits within a horizontal angle of 30°.
Locate the antenna so linked equipment will be in this beam. The
center of the antenna beam is the long axis of the antenna, with the
beam pointing away from the mast.
2. Surrounding objects such as metal structures, trees, power lines,
other antennas, etc. will reduce antenna efficiency and may block
signals. Choose a location that is high and clear of obstruction.
3. Make absolutely sure that the location is safe, especially from
possible contact with power lines. See warning on back.
Mounting
1. The antenna can be vertical polarized mounted (Figure A) or
horizontal polarized mounted (Figure B). It is shipped from the
factory in the vertical polarized position.
2. Mount the antenna as shown, ensuring U-Bolt nuts are securely
tightened to prevent antenna shift in high wind.
3. The antenna can be mounted in a up or down tilt position from 0-60°.
See below for mounting options.

Horizontal Polarized Mounting
1. To mount the antenna in the horizontal
polarized position, rotate antenna into
the position shown in Figure B. The
cable should be exiting from the side of
the antenna and the plugged drain
holes facing down.
2. Remove (2) drain hole plugs from
bottom and insert into side holes.
3. Attach antenna to L-Bracket using the
(4) pan head screws.
