[. . . ] BARKER & WILLIAMSON 603 CIDCO ROAD COCOA, FL 32926 321-639-1510 www. bwantennas. com MODEL FDMK Mounting kit for folded dipoles in three pole installations The FDMK mounting kit allows easy permanent or pulley mounting of our line of folded dipole antennas. [. . . ] Please read the entire instruction sheet and determine your mounting method before starting. ASSEMBLY Referring to figure 1, first attach the short plastic cross arm to the bottom of the long plastic vertical support with two #8 flat head self tapping screws. It is normal for a little plastic to crack out of the top of the hole when starting the thread. Next, attach the stainless steel clamp to the top of the vertical support using the 1/4-20 flat head machine screw, flat washer, and self locking nut. If you wish to attach the support to a mast, tree, or other similar object, you may wish to do so now, before attaching the antenna. This will allow you access to a hole under the balun which is convenient for a screw or bolt. Attach the balancing network in the metal clamp, using the long 1/4-20 machine screw and a self locking nut. Clamp the balun to the short plastic cross arm as shown in figure 2 using the plastic strap with the remaining 1/4-20 machine screws, flat washers on both sides, and self locking nuts. USAGE Several sketches are included to give you some ideas on mounting. [. . . ] In this manner, the entire center of the antenna can be raised or lowered as a unit. 11/02 BALANCING NETWORK PIPE / MAST Figure 1 TOWER ARM PULLEY MOUNT BALUN & STRAP (SHOWN FOR REF) BALUN TOWER ARM FIXED MOUNT Figure 2 [. . . ]
