Fine Trim Mechanism
The Fine Trim allows:
To adjust the length of the inner post and extremely accurately set
the resulting drop down time.

get the rig very easily into a „dirty low mode“.

8.2.2 Center Post Clamp Force Adjustment
ADVICE
Overtighten the leveling screw
This will cause the clamping force to become excessive and the Carbon Center Post may
be damaged.
Turn the silver nut by a 1/8 or 1/4 turn to the right. NOT more!
