Lining up the Elevation

[hitecsat]

i have a dish 500 satellite dish and am needing to know what I need to be looking at when lining the elevation. What do I need to be lining the numbers up with? There is not a groove like the skew has to line it up with.

There are degree marks on left side of dish. Align the degree marks with the front edge {towards the reflector} of the locking screw thats on the same side as the degree marks. If your mounting post is plumb, that proceedure will put you in the ball park before you start fine tuning.
