11• Choose an installation position on the roof that is as horizontal as possible or only slightly sloping,depending on the location of the vehicle, since roof inclinations greater than 5° may lead to problemswhen searching for the satellite.• To ensure secure adhesion, the height difference of the roof curve may not be more than 1 cm over alength of 2 m, as otherwise the gap between the roof and the mounting plate would be too big to be filledby the adhesive sealant.• As the vehicle is constantly subjected to vibration loads during travel, the roof below the antenna unit isalso subject to significant loads. Please note given the nature and capacity of your vehicle roof (see alsooperating manual for the vehicle) that the weight of the antenna unit is approx. 13.8 kg. In case of doubt,consult a qualified dealer or your vehicle’s manufacturer.• The roof gland provides a watertight seal through which the two connecting cables (coax cable andpower supply cable) are fed into the interior of the vehicle directly underneath the turntable. If you prefera different method of laying the cables, they can be run from the rear of the turntable via the channelprovided in the mounting plate. The cables must then be run along the roof of the vehicle in a protectedcable duct (not supplied).Note: Do not cut the cables, as otherwise the proper functioning of the unit can no longer beguaranteed.• In the centre of the intended position of the turntable, drill the opening for the cable gland with a circularcutter (Ø: 38 mm). Deburr the hole with a round file or emery paper.• Provisionally insert the roof gland into the drilled hole (Fig. A).• Place the mounting plate on the roof of the vehicle, such that the centre hole is positioned centrally tothe cable gland. The arrow symbol must be visible from above and point forwards in the direction oftravel (Fig. B).Figure: AComment: If you had previously used a Kathrein HDM140/141 flexible satellite mast or another mastwith a diameter of 34 mm, you can continue using the existing gland hole in the roof (if spaceallows).INSTALLATION STEPSINSTALLATION OF CABLE GLAND AND MOUNTING PLATEINSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONO Ring Adhesive
