FIGURE 3-6. Adjust the tilt angle of the SP10

For the SP20 and SP20R, the angle is set by the alignment of holes on the
mount and arm brackets (FIGURE 3-7). Refer to TABLE 3-2 to determine
which holes need to be aligned for the correct angle. Use the following
procedure to mount the solar panel.

1. Insert a bolt through the correct upper hole on each arm bracket (hole 1 or

2) and through the upper opening (Y and Z) in the mount.

2. Place a washer and nut on the end of each upper bolt, but do not tighten

the nuts.

3. Insert a bolt through the correct lower hole on each arm bracket (hole A,

B, or C) and through hole P on the mount.

4. Once again, place washers and nuts on the end of each bolt, but do not

tighten the nuts.

5. Slide the upper bolts into the correct position (Y or Z) on the bracket, and

fully tighten all four nuts.
