Yaesu recommends pinning the mast to their rotators.  Either way it still
won't stop the antenna from rotating on the mast.

Usually those things slip for a reason which prevents you from having to
purchase a new rotator. OTOH sometimes they slip just due to a poor mast
clamp.   Still it's not a good idea to pin the mast to the rotator unless
you have a rotator that is nearly indestructable and that eliminates all the
non worm gear drive rotators.
