Installation Guide

Required Tools

 Phillips screwdriver

 Needle-nose pliers

 Crescent wrench

 Hobby knife with a fine point and sharp blade

Assemble the Antenna Riser

1. Remove the antenna assembly and antenna
from its packaging.

2. Set the short piece of antenna cable aside to be
used in a later step.

3. Remove the plastic cap, the nut, and the lock
washer from the stem of the antenna.

4. Put the stem of the antenna through the
mounting hole on the top of the antenna riser so
the antenna is positioned on top of the riser.

5. Put the lock washer onto the stem of the
antenna, and then thread the nut onto the
stem. Use a wrench or pliers to tighten the nut
sufficiently to ensure that the antenna makes
good contact with the outside of the antenna
riser.

6. Thread the coax connector on the antenna
cable onto the stem of the antenna and hand­tighten it. Route the antenna cable towards the
bottom of the antenna riser.

7. Insert the tabs on the backing plate into the
holes at the top edge of the riser and make sure
the plate is snug along the back of the riser.

Installation Guide

Prepare the Mounting Location for the
Antenna Riser

1. Open and remove the front door on the lower
part of the pedestal.

2. On the inside left wall of the pedestal, remove
the nuts from the bolts that secure the cover on
the outside wall. Set the nuts aside to be
replaced in a later step.

3. Remove the bolts that are holding the cover on
the outside wall. Set the bolts aside to be
replaced in a later step.

4. Remove the cover from the outside wall, making
sure that the gasket stays in place.

5. On the inside left wall of the pedestal, find the
opening that is covered by the gasket. Use a
sharp hobby knife to poke a small hole to mark
the center of the opening.

6. Remove the gasket and place it on a solid
surface. Use the hobby knife to cut a small X that
intersects the small hole that you made. Make
each cut approximately ½ inch long.

Note: This opening is used to route the
antenna cable inside the pedestal in order to
connect it to the cell modem. Make the X
large enough to pass the cable through, but
small enough to maintain the seal.

7. Position the gasket on the outside wall of the
pedestal so the bolt holes are aligned and the
small X is aligned with the opening for the
antenna cable.

Note: You’ll need to hold the gasket in place

while you attach the antenna riser in the next

step. For this part of the procedure, it’s nice

to have a helper.
