Conversion set for flat antenna BAS 60 / BAS 61
- Modification instructions -
The conversion set for BAS 60/BAS 61 enables you to convert your mobile flat
antenna to a stationary antenna. The use determination (purpose) of your
antenna will also change. After the rnodification has been effected, the antennas
are identical with the flat antennas BAS 62 or BAS 63. These are flat antennas for
stationary use. The instructions for the „Conversion set“ are complemented by the
12-page brochure „Mounting instructions“ supplied together with the flat antennas
BAS 62/BAS 63.
Important notice!
The rnounting instructions contain important information regarding the stationary
use, the installation, the mounting site and the safety of your flat antenna. lt is
absolutely necessary that you pay attention to these instructions.
Do not separate the modification instructions from the mounting instructions. In
case you sell the antenna, both instructions should be handed over to the new
owner.
Purpose
The conversion set must only be used for the modi-
fication of the flat antennas BAS 60 and BAS 61. The
conversion set changes the flat antenna BAS 60 to a
BAS 62 and the flat antenna BAS 61 to a BAS 63
(see opposite illustration). After the modification, the
mobile antennas BAS 60/BAS 61 are stationary anten-
nas BAS 62/BAS 63.
