6. Fasten the lower mounting pole (which is swaged on the top end) to your mounting pole or
bracket (purchased separately) with the hose clamps. Tighten the lower mounting pole to your
mounting pole with the hose clamps with a flat head screw driver, as shown in Figure 6.
Slide the top weather station pole (with the sensor array) into the lower pole (connected to
your mounting pole) when your station is finally mounted.
When you install the weather station, you will need to calibrate the anemometer pointer to
true north. True north can be estimated with a compass (which points to magnetic north) or a
GPS, which provides true north. Wind direction is defined as the direction the wind is coming
from (example, Winds from the north).
Note the four channels on the side of the wind vane. Each quadrant is labeled North, South,
East and West (reference Figure 6 as an example for “E” or East). Locate the North direction
(“N”) and mark it with a piece of tape for future reference. You will need this for wind
direction calibration upon final assembly.
