After the brackets are secure, use a tape to measure the spacing between the main bracket and the auxiliary bracket at the two sides and ensure that the spacing is the same.zThe weight-bearing capacity of the RF ports at the bottom of the RRU is low. Do not place the RRU at its bottom.zDuring the operation, place the foam pad or cardboard under the RRU to prevent any damage to the housing of the RRU. 2. Use an adjustable wrench to tighten the nut until the fastening torque is 40 N·m. In this way, the main and auxiliary brackets are secured on the pole.1.
