When I used my lifter especially that high be careful as you don't want dish to tip over make sure you have hooked as high on mount as possible. You put lifter on poll as high as possible behind dish but you can swing dish and lifter around on pole to take off any direction needed. I would...

One of my old customers wants to remove his 10 ft dish if anyone is near Regina, Sask, Canada it can be yours for the taking it's a Star Trac I believe. I have not seen it for years but he says mover still works von wiese not sure what receiver but it is not a 4dtv think it is an older GI. I do...

Here is a picture of mine as I was saying I found when the mount is directly behind dish when you get over to the far east the arm is pulling straight back against the pivot point which can sometimes cause the motor to give you an error also as tvropro says make sure your physical limit is...

Found a picture of my father in-laws dish which I put up you can see what I am talking about on his dish just a bar fairly thick coming off the back of the dish at a right angle then mount your arm on the end of the new bar.
