INSTALLATION WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
LIVES MAY BE AT RISK! Carefully observe these instructions and any special instructions that are included with the
equipment you are installing.
CONTACTING POWER LINES CAN BE LETHAL. Make sure no power lines
are anywhere where possible contact can be made. Antennas, masts, towers,
guy wires or cables may lean or fall and contact these lines. People may be
injured or killed if they are touching or holding any part of equipment when it
contacts electric lines. Make sure that equipment or personnel do not come in
contact directly or indirectly with power lines.
The horizontal distance from a tower, mast or antenna to the nearest power
line should be at least twice the total length of the mast/antenna combination.
This will ensure that the mast will not contact power if it falls either during installation or later.
TO AVOID FALLING, USE SAFE PROCEDURES WHEN WORKING AT HEIGHTS ABOVE GROUND.
Select equipment locations that will allow safe, simple equipment installation.
Don’t work alone. A friend or co-worker can save your life if an accident happens.
Use approved non-conducting lasers and other safety equipment. Make sure all equipment is in good repair.
If a tower or mast begins falling, don’t attempt to catch it. Stand back and let it fall.
If anything such as a wire or mast does come in contact with a power line, DON’T TOUCH IT OR ATTEMPT TO
MOVE IT. Instead, save your life by calling the power company.
Don’t attempt to erect antennas or towers on windy days.
MAKE SURE ALL TOWERS AND MASTS ARE SECURELY GROUNDED, AND ELECTRICAL CABLES CONNECTED TO
ANTENNAS HAVE LIGHTNING ARRESTORS. This will help prevent fire damage or human injury in case of lightning, static
build-up, or short circuit within equipment connected to the antenna.
The base of the antenna mast or tower must be connected directly to the building protective ground or to one or more
approved grounding rods, using 1 OAWG ground wire and corrosion-resistant connectors.
Refer to the National Electrical Code for grounding details.
IF A PERSON COMES IN CONTACT WITH ELECTRICAL POWER, AND CANNOT MOVE:
DON’T TOUCH THAT PERSON, OR YOU MAY BE ELECTROCUTED.
Use a non-conductive dry board, stick or rope to push or drag them so they no longer are in contact with electrical
power.
Once they are no longer contacting electrical power, administer CPR if you are certified, and make sure that emergency
medical aid has been requested.
