Assemble the Anemometer
Attach the Wind Vane
The wind direction has been calibrated in the factory so that the wind direction
will be correct when the arm is installed pointing north and the vane is installed
correctly.
1. Slide the wind vane onto the wind vane shaft. The shaft’s cross section is Dshaped to ensure that the anemometer is installed correctly.
2. Tighten the set screw in the wind vane with the Allen wrench.
