UNPACKING/ASSEMBLY
After unpacking the system, verify that you have a level,
compass (attached to base), and 25 feet of coax. If you
do not, call Winegard Company at 1-800-288-8094
between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. central
time, Monday through Friday.
SAVE THE CARTON. This carton is designed to be
reused to store your system in when not in use.
OPERATION
NOTE: Disregard the compass markings, the red
compass needle always points North. Rotate the
base so that the other end of the needle points at the
correctheading(direction)ontheantennabase. DO
NOT USE THE DEGREE MARKINGS ON THE
COMPASS.
STEP 1. Connect coax from LNBF to receiver. If
additionalcablelengthisrequired,useahighgradeRG-
6/U type foam cable suitable for satellite signal and an
FS-8100 cable splice.
STEP 2. Plug in the receiver and TV.
STEP 3. Turn TV and receiver ON.
NOTE: If you have the unit sitting on a tailgate or on
othermetalitems,itisrecommendedthatyouremove
thecompassfromthebaseandstandaway(15'min.)
to find the correct azimuth. Compass is attached to
base with velcro.
STEP 4. Tune TV to ch. 3 or 4 (to the same channel as
the output on the receiver.)
STEP 5. Determine azimuth (direction) and elevation
required for your position. Refer to receiver manual.
STEP 9. Adjust azimuth (direction) and elevation (up/
down) for strongest signal.
STEP 6. Loosen clamp knobs. Elevate reflector to the
correct elevation. Align degree of elevation required
with front of the slide bracket. Each mark indicates 5
degrees of elevation with the first mark being 0 (mark
closesttocompass/level). SeeFigures1and2. Tighten
clamp knobs.
NOTE: Ifyoudonotgetapicture,checkthefollowing:
1.
Make sure antenna has clear view of the high

4.
Make sure coax connections are good.
Check coax for breaks, crimps, cuts etc.
If base is not level, you will have to adjust the
elevationtocompensate.
STEP 7. Level base using bubble level recessed into
the base.
5.
Check that TV is tuned to correct channel.
STEP 8. Usingcompassrecessedintobase,rotatethe
base slowly (3 increments) to the desired azimuth

digital, you must wait a few seconds after each move to
allow the receiver to process the signal.
