WARNING
• Do not attempt to adjust height without instrument being mounted on Arm.
• Use caution when disengaging the Height Locking Lever. The total mounted load may have
changed due to the addition or removal of equipment (other than primary instrument) while
the Height Locking Lever was engaged. A change in the total load can cause a sudden
downward or upward movement of the Arm when the Height Locking Lever is disengaged.
Adjusting Height of the Mounted Instrument

Engagement of the Height Locking Lever is not required during normal operation of the counterbalanced instrument.
