90cm dish on jaeger 99g ok or plain stupid

A friend of mine has just got a 90cm fortec star dish and a jaeger 99g and wants me to set it up which is not a problem but the thing i am not happy about is it has to go above the roof which would be ok by me if it was a polar mount but i am not to sure about the 99g going above the roof,

Have any of you guys had any experence with the 36v 99g h-h mount i have not had a chance to go have a look at it yet, What are your thoughts about it going above the roof can it take it?

My System: Sky+, DB 7000s, Gemini 4.3 in flash, Var on USB stick. Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Unaohm EP313, Swires Annie 204 Spectrum, Rover ST-4 Spectrum.

Should be fine, a friend of mine has had one running above the roofline for several years without problem.

Thanks for that, so the mount is quite strong then, Looking at the photos on the internet the thing that worries me is the pole part that bolts to the h-h with 2 bolts it does not look strong enough, Also rolf do you know what the mount is like in the wind does it wobble about at all
