Key points to remember when installing your

Shaw Direct System:

• Do not drill any holes until you’ve confirmed the

best location for the dish.

• Make sure the installation of the dish conforms to

local electrical and building codes, zoning requirements

and other applicable laws and regulations. If you are

unsure, contact your local electrician or building

inspector for assistance.

• For possible periodic removal of snow, choose a site

that is easily accessible.

• Ensure there are no visible obstructions between the dish

and your line of sight to the satellites. Keep in mind that

trees will grow up and outward and may eventually block

the signal.

• The maximum allowable length for the RG-6 coaxial

cable connecting the receiver to your dish is 125 feet.

Consult Shaw Direct if the cable will exceed this length.

• Use only RG-6 grade coaxial cable. Using lower grade

RG-59 coaxial cable may result in excessive signal loss

and poor reception. Cable grade type is indicated on the

outer jacket of the cable.

• Do not install the dish:

• Under power lines

• Where it may be easily tampered with

• Where it is exposed to high winds, during windy or

stormy conditions

Shaw Direct offers a supplementary Self Install Kit, If you

have not already purchased our Self Install Kit, you may

do so by calling 1.888.554.7827. This kit contains

everything you will need to successfully install your Shaw

Direct satellite system. Please contact Shaw Direct to

order or receive additional information regarding the Self

Install Kit.

2. Mounting Locations

Your dish will typically be mounted on a solid base. To

ensure your dish doesn’t move in windy conditions, choose

a location where it can be securely fastened. The mounting

surface should be rigid and solid.

IMPORTANT: The Elliptical Dish has a turn radius of

35 degrees. If you are mounting the dish on the

side of your house, check the assembled dish and

mounting pole to see if you can rotate the dish in

the desired azimuth setting. If you can’t rotate the

dish, choose an alternate location.

Key things to remember when choosing a mounting

location:

• The mounting surface should be flat, even and in good

condition.

• If you install the dish on the roof or side of your

house, be sure to attach the bolts into a building stud,

rafter or other solid surface.

• When mounting on the roof of your house,

use an adequate/approved sealant (for your type of

roofing material) around the holes where the base of

the universal mount meets the mounting surface. This

will prevent the roof from leaking. (Consult with a

roofing expert to confirm best sealant.)

• We do not recommend:

• Mounting the dish on a railing

• Installing the dish on aluminum or vinyl siding

(these are unlikely to be structurally sound)

• Keep grounding requirements in mind (see section 11

for additional information on grounding).

3. Dish Assembly

Step 1: To avoid losing any hardware components, select

a clear area on the ground for dish assembly.

Step 2: On the Universal Mount, insert the (2) 1/4" X 1/2"

Carriage Head Bolts (Mast Adjusting Bolts), through the

mast and the curved slot of the mount. Capture with

(2) 1/4" External Tooth Washers and (2) 1/4" Whiz Nuts.

Tighten the bolts just enough to hold in place (see

Figure A).

Step 3: Attach the dish to the Clamp Mount Assembly

using the (2) 1/4" X 1-3/4" Long Carriage Head Bolts

(Antenna Mounting Bolts-Painted Head), (2) 1/4 Flat

Washers and (2) 1/4" Whiz Nuts. Ensure the Center Pivot

Pin on the Clamp Mount Assembly is inserted in the

mating hole of the Dish (see Figure B).

Note: We do not recommend mounting the dish on

the roof unless absolutely necessary. We also

recommend that you consult a building expert for

future tips on preventing roof leakage.
