Build from the base upward: CHA HD GUY CLAMP is the two-piece mast ring used to connect the UGS three-line system to larger CFM masts. It creates a deliberate guy point without drilling or improvising attachments on the carbon-fiber tube.
Deployment sequence
- Assemble the two halves squarely around the correct mast section.
- Tighten the supplied hardware evenly without crushing the tube.
- Connect one UGS carabiner and line to each guy hole.
- Tension the three-line system evenly after the mast is raised.
Before raising the antenna
- Confirm the selected mast section is the documented 24-26 mm diameter at the correct guying height.
- Use all supplied stainless hardware and three carabiners.
- Do not treat the clamp as a lifting point, antenna bracket, or reason to exceed the mast rating.
Before transmitting
- Confirm every mast section, clamp, mount, adapter, guy line, antenna attachment, coax route, and RF-return conductor.
- Begin RF checks at low power after the final geometry is stable.
- Record the exact configuration so a successful setup can be reproduced.
- Never install it on a cracked, deformed, or wrong-diameter section.
- Do not overtighten into carbon fiber.
