General Assembly Information

Roof Mounts

Select a location on your roof where all Tripod or Quadpod feet are over rafters. Use lag screws of sufficient length to go through the roof surfacing material and into the rafter. A minimum of two lag screws per foot is required. If a rafter is not available, additional reinforcement should be added under the roof surface for support. Do not attach feet to roof surface only. Apply roofing compound under and around the feet for moisture sealing. Under no circumstances should anyone attempt to climb upon a Tripod or a Quadpod.

Wall Mounts

Select a location where braces will attach to a structural member (wall stud, sill plate, etc). Use lag screws of sufficient length to go through the stud, sill plate, etc). Use lag screws of sufficient length to go through the wall sheathing and or siding and into the structural member. Apply sealant as required for moisture protection.

The Snake Mount

The Snake Mount is designed to adapt. It will work as a universal wall mount, a pitched roof mount, or a peak roof mount for wireless cable, DBS and UHF/UVF antennas. The snake mount comes in two sizes, small and large. The Small Snake Mount (part number: SM125) has a 1 1/4” O.D. mast capable of supporting an antenna of 2 square feet projected area or less. The Large Snake Mount (part number: SM238) has a 2 3/8” O.D. mast capable of supporting up to a 1 meter antenna.

Mast Length

Do not attach any mast over 10 feet in length without using guys in three or four directions.

Antenna Load

Any antenna over 2 square feet in size mounted within 10 feet of mast must be guyed.
