16+
17+
## Goals
18+
19+
The goals of this article are:
20+
21+
- Assembly the mechanical pieces on the device
22+
- Attach the device on your pole
23+
24+
## Hardware & Software Needed
25+
26+
- [WisGate Edge Pro](https://store.arduino.cc/products/wisgate-edge-pro)
27+
28+
## Instructions
29+
30+
The mechanical pieces are included with the device, those will make the device fit on an outdoors pole firmly and safe.
31+
* 2 Clamps
32+
* 1 Bracket
33+
* 2 Antennas
34+
35+
### Assembly the Bracket to the Enclosure
36+
37+
Turn the gateway, on the back it has four holes for screws, align those with the bracket and screw them.
38+

### Clamps on the Pole
51+
52+
Take the bigger clamp and introduce one screw on the hole that fits better for your pole, grab the smaller clamp and align it with the screw, after that you should take a nut and make it closer to the smaller clamp, repeat it with the other side, first just make sure everything is aligned and then fasten them properly with a screwdriver.
53+
54+
***The clamp is also suitable to be mounted using hose clamps (not included) you should then use the rectangular holes on the bigger clamp***

### Attaching the bracket on the clamps
65+
66+
Once both the bracket on the gateway and the clamps on the pole are properly fasten, it is time to attach the gateway to the pole.
67+
After it's attached fasten one M6*12 screws on each side.
