5.3.3 Attaching the antenna to the installation support taking into account the required polarisation
value for wall installation
1. Take the antenna with the preset elevation and insert the central bolt
on the antenna support in the opening (keyhole) provided for this in the
centre of the installation support. Press the antenna downwards until
the central bolt is in the narrowed area and the antenna can no longer
fall out.
2. When attaching the antenna, observe the polarisation setting to be
determined under point 5.6 and turn the antenna support by the
appropriate number of degrees. For this, note the direction (looking
toward the satellite, "+" to the right and "-" and to the left).
The chart for the polarisation setting is on the front of the fl at surface
of the installation support where the antenna and the support are
screwed together (see the picture below on the right).
3. Now attach the antenna to the support using the four supplied
screws (see picture above on the right).
Insert two screws through the curved long holes and into the thread
of the counterpiece and hand-tighten them.
4. With the remaining two screws, proceed in the same way from the
opposite side.
5. Use the enclosed hexagon socket wrench to tighten the screws.
First, tighten the screws slightly by gripping the wrench at the
short end.
6. Then grip the wrench at the long end and tighten the screws
by approx. 1/4 to 1/2 turns.
The screw-tightening torque now corresponds to approx.
6 to 7 Nm.
Continue with point 6 of the instructions for use.
5.4 Mast installation
5.4.1 Attaching the installation support to a mast or a wall support

Recommended accessories:

When selecting the antenna support, observe the requirements according to point 5.4.1 (see below). For example,
these requirements are suffi cient for the Kathrein wall supports ZAS 61, ZAS 62 and ZAS 63, the Kathrein masts
ZAS 05 and ZAS 06 and the rafter supports ZAS 40 and ZAS 41.
Demands made on the antenna supports (masts)
• Only use masts or supports that are specially suited for use as
antenna supports.
Other types of mounting often do not possess the required level of
sturdiness under wind and weather conditions.
• Select a tube diameter between 42 and 50 mm and a wall
thickness of at least 2 mm.
• If a mast is installed on a roof, ensure that the mast is clamped
for at least a sixth of the free length. Ensure that the permissible
clamping torque of the mast is not exceeded.
• For this reason, install the antenna as low as possible on the
mast. This is particularly important for masts on which other
antennas have already been mounted. If necessary you must
have the clamping torque checked mathematically or calculated
by a specialist as according to EN 0855-1. The image on the right
shows an installation example as described in EN 0855-1.
