MOUNTING THE ANTENNA ON SIDING
We do not recommend mounting the satellite
antenna on aluminum or vinyl siding. These
materials can be structurally unsound, causing
eventual shifting of the dish. To mount the
satellite antenna on solid siding, make sure to
follow the suggestions below.
ࡗ The surface must be flat and even. You may need to use a separator, or shim, between
the shingles to even the siding surface.
ࡗ Mount the foot on the foundation material beneath the siding surface. This may be a
building stud, cinder block, or other solid material. To locate the studs, find the vertical
line of nails where the siding is attached to the building, or use a stud finder.
