Safety Hints

ATTENTION: PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE USING TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT

& OPERATOR!

The crane may not be assembled or operated under inuence of alcohol, drugs or any other intoxicang

substances. Lack of aenon while connecng the components together can cause substanal damage

to equipment / operator.

The crane may only be operated on levelled horizontal posion. Make sure that the surface is stable.

To prevent any harm or injury, properly join all secons of the crane. It is suggested to use the support

stand while telescoping the complete length.

Always connect the steel cables properly to provide stability to the system.

They should not negavely impact the movements of crane in any way.

Aer setup of the crane, the pan-lt head / gimbal head shall be posioned under the central pivot

secon. In assembled state, when the pan-lt head / gimbal head is higher than central pivot secon,

there should be someone to look aer the crane system.

The complete panning & liing range around it must be kept free. Avoid anybody standing under the

crane. No loose objects may be stored or placed on it. Be very careful while using indoors.

Never operate the crane in the immediate vicinity of high-voltage power cables. It holds danger to life.

Parcular care is required when operang the crane in unfavourable weather condions. The crane

must be shut down in sucient me. When it is used in a rainy day, the pan-lt head / gimbal head and

controlling bar shall be protected against rain.

When you want to transport the crane, lock the Pan & Tilt Axis for safety. Make sure that the

components do not rub together and cause any material wear.

Before the counterweights are removed, ensure the remote head is resng on the support stand. Then

gradually remove the counterweights before remote head, camera or other parts.

In the interest of safe crane operaon, avoid abruptly swivelling or stopping the crane, otherwise it may

cause serious damage to equipment.

 Loosen the knob below the camera plate and slide the camera and plate up or down unl the center

line of your camera is about in the middle of the large gear. Now ghten knob.

Opreaon

Counterweights

The Jib is setup with “plate weights” or bar bells” style weights. Plate weights come in several weights and

diameters. They get smaller as the weights get lighter. The largest (25lbs) is about 11 inches in diameter.

The mounng hole is 1” in diameter for all weights. The jib has a varying weight rao depending on the

length you have chosen. The 24.5 arm itself balances at about 121.5 lbs. Just mulply the weight, of the

addional items you will put on the end of the arm, by 5 and you will know how much weight to buy. Buy

a few extras in case you add other accessories.

The lighter weights will allow you to “ne tune” once you’re ready to go.
