Thoroughly Before Assembly
Mount Seating Ring on Reflector. Remove the outer
plastic wrap and plastic gloves from the seating ring
cardboard package, but do not remove the seating
ring from the package. Use the gloves to handle the
package. Certain feed mounting surfaces have
corrosion-inhibiting compound applied to them for
contact with specific areas on the reflector.
Therefore, do not remove the compound during
installation.
Carefully place the seating ring package against
the rear surface (convex side) of the reflector,
as shown in Figure 3, and place any additional
plates required (see Figure 2) against the front
surface (concave side). Make sure that the overlap
of the hub retaining ring (see Figure 4) is
positioned toward the top of the antenna. Also
make sure that any taper of the ring or the
plates matches the curvature of the reflector.
Insert four M10 hardware bolts through the
assembly from the front side of the reflector.
Then add a flat washer, lock washer, and nut to
each bolt. Finger tighten the bolts.
Remove the two tie wraps from the seating ring
package and remove the package. Then add the
remaining bolts, flat washers, lock washers, and
nuts. Tighten all eight bolts evenly.
