HI
I WOLD LIKE TO ASKE WHATS BEST TO INSTALL TOROIDAL T90 DISH
14.1KG /31.0LBS THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.
 
A good quality elbow type bracket will do, but needs to have braces built in for stability.
 
The t90 is 'immensely' front heavy. If wall mounted, imo only use the 60 mm original mount. Mount only on a very solid wall, strenghten \ disseminate load with horizontal wood boards top and bottom, use properly dimensioned screws (add large washers for extra pression surface at srew heads).

Thank you for your reply, I find I place my dish position I'm not able to use arm wall bracket I'm trying to attach some photo but due to the size I think they are not uploading on the web site

So are you looking at an above the gutter mount? Can't really see from that photo.
 
Elbow mounts are not very good because the fixings are in one position on the wall. Better to use T & K brackets to spread the load.

There are some good ones available, large backplates and braces, more than man enough for a T90, but it looks like they wouldn't be suitable anyway and perhaps T&Ks may be the only answer, perhaps more than one set, or at the least, two K brackets.

I'm able to use the WhatsApp to send you you!? xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

MOD NOTE Phone numbers should not be displayed on open forum for your own safety. If Rolf does have WhatsApp he will be able to find the number I have deleted. But what's wrong with posting another photo that's better so we can all see it?

Yes I did try to attach the photo but it says it's too large I try different format doesn't let me to upload a photo from my phone or computer any advice please!?
 
If you've only got a phone and the phone doesn't have an app to reduce the size of the photo then the only other thing I can suggest is what I had to do once. Take photo from a little distance away and then crop the photo to give a close-up.

If its on the computer use Windows paint or similar to reduce the size. Or this program does it.
xxx.reduceimages.com/ Change the XXX for www
 
Also, if you can put it on a PC or similar (I don't "do" Apple Stuff"!) then something like the FastStone Image Viewer App can do that very easily/quickly.
 
I used these. better support due to spacing of fixings.

Thank you I tap on the link doesn't open!
 
The answer is within the pages of the dish manual, based on your location and what you intend on watching.

Hi I wold like to add is much satellite is possible the only thing I bought dish it's no instructions and I never had this tip of dish it's new to me TOROIDAL T90
 
Start by doing some (lots of) reading. Search google, and search the forum here.
example installing t90 dish - Google Search

1st thing will be to make the support absolutely stable, very solid, exactly straight ...or else you will struggle forever trying to adjust a t90.

IMO, do not install at the end of a ladder. Get it a ground\standing level, there will be lots of activity over quite a long period before getting things right, adjusting dish angles, adjusting\adding lnb's, cabling etc.
