2 FINDING THE SATELLITE STEP 1 . Step outside the vehicle and, using a compass, determine which direction is North. (Standing in or near the vehicle can give you an incorrect reading.) The more accurately you determine North, the easier it will be to find the satellite(s).
3 OPERATIONS DO’S AND DON’T’S DO’S 1. Do check parking location for obstructions before raising antenna. 2. Do carefully raise, lower and rotate the antenna — if difficult, check for cause. 3. Do rotate slowly when searching for the satellite(s) and check fine tuning on TV set for proper adjustment.
4 TROUBLE SHOOTING NO PICTURE ON TV 1. Do you have a clear line of sight to the satellite? Are there trees, buildings, etc. in the way? Figure 3 illus- trates the look angle of your reflector. 2. Do you have the menu from the receiver? If not, check the channel the TV set is tuned for — it should be 3 or 4.
5 INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY THINGS YOU NEED Screwdrivers (Phillips and slot) 1-3/4” hole saw 7/16” wrench Drill with 1/8” bit Tape measure Sealant (Must be approved for compatibility w/roof) STEP 1.
6 STEP 3. Remove backing from gasket. Attach adhesive side to base plate. IF YOU ARE USING THE ROOF WEDGE (RW-5000), use 3/16” gasket included with the mount UNDER the roof wedge. Install the 1/16” gasket included with RW-5000 BETWEEN the mount and roof wedge.
7 STEP 7. Facing the front of the dish, find coax cables attached to side of the feed arm, Figure 9. Measure 24” of coax from this point and mark. DO NOT CUT. Rotate mount on base clockwise, fully, until it stops. Route coax around mount base, Figure 10.
