    have a look here mate simple to follow instructions to get you set up from installation of dish to receiver set up, any probs shout away.

    MOTORISED DISH USING USALS 1: Put up wall bracket/pole vertical with a spirit level on a south facing wall or as close to south as possible. I added a photo of a T&K mount as this one is more stable in high winds,whichever bracket you use make sure it is vertical on all sides 2: While motor is still on floor adjust

        same as the lat if i remember right,

        2: While motor is still on floor adjust your elevation/latitude markings on the motor to the same as your latitude where you live, if your motor markings have only elevation makings it is 90 minus latitude= elevation on motor, mine is 51.5 latitude if it was elevation markings I would have put it to 38.5,yours will be different to mine. I use multimap.com to find my longitude and latitude. Tighten up as this will not have to be adjusted again.
