Caution:
Do not use this lock as a transport
catch! Danger of cables being jammed
in case column is pulled/pushed while
brake is closed.
3.4.3 Drag
By turning the “DRAG” adjustment knob clockwise
the drag increases and an unintended lift of the
column can be prevented. This usually occurs by til-
ting either fluid heads in a high damping position
too quickly or CAM heads with an overdimensioned
CAM curve.
3.5 Trim weights
The Vario Ped comes with trim weights (6 x 0.8 kg/ 1.8 lbs).
They compensate for change of temperature without having
to vent or fill in air into the column during a broadcast. The
trim weights can compensate for a 8 °C/14 °F temperature
change.
(To avoid direct contact with lead, the trim weights are
plastic coated).
