It’ll get pushed and pulled during its lifetime, and it’s the responsibility of the person installing the dish to ensure it’s secure. The most common practice seems to be putting the dish back up, checking to see if the homeowner gets a picture on their TV and everyone is happy, right? Not quite. Now I know there will be some roofers out there who’ve had luck trying to put back the dish into the same holes. If a roofing contractor puts the dish back up in the same spot, potentially unnecessary damage has just occurred to the new roof. So once the dish is off the house, great! Now what? Naturally, the new roof needs to be installed, and the customer will be without service for at least a day, if not several. Roofers don’t need to worry about damaging the roof upon removal (which is otherwise a major concern for dish removal projects). Carefully cut any cable ties, and gently pull the wire back away from the dish. The cables will be attached just inside the plastic housing and you can loosen them with the 7/16” wrench (or an adjustable wrench). Some DirecTV dishes have a handy lever that releases the LNB when pulled down - no tools needed. You’ll see one or two small Phillips head screws. Look near the end of the satellite dish’s LNB arm (the LNB is the “eye” on the end of the dish). In order to remove the cables without causing damage, you’ll need a small to medium sized Phillips head screwdriver and a 7/16” open ended wrench.
