Mounting the Mast
Mounting the Mast on a Chimney
Materials Needed to Mount the Mast on a Chimney:
(1) RCA D915 Chimney Mount Kit
Tools Needed to Mount the Mast on a Chimney:
bubble level
7/16" wrench
screwdriver
tin snips
pliers
ladder
pencil
Important Considerations:
Make sure the chimney is sturdy and in good condition.
There should be enough room for the dish to be mounted
without extending above the top of the chimney. This will
prevent the dish from being damaged by heat and soot.
If possible, position the dish on the side of the chimney that
faces the prevailing wind.
To Mount the Mast on a Chimney
1. Follow the instructions in the RCA D915 Chimney Mount Kit
to install the mast on your chimney.
2. Go to “Final Approach” on page 63.
DANGER! AVOID Power Lines!
When following these instructions, take extreme care to avoid
contact with overhead power lines, electric lights, and power
circuits. Contact with power lines, electric lights, or power
circuits may be fatal. It is recommended that the dish be
located more than 20 feet from overhead power lines.
IMPORTANT
Use the chimney only if you cannot
locate a good mounting site on the
side of your house, on your deck or
patio, or on a pole in your yard. High
winds can put great strain on the
mounting and the chimney if the dish
is not mounted properly.
