Stand the pillar and extend the Upper Pillar
toward the ceiling.
When the Top Rubber Cup reaches the ceiling,
tighten the M6x20 bolt temporally to fix the pillar
length.
This is the actual length between the floor and the
ceiling without compressing the spring.
Loosen the temporally tightened M6x20 bolt,
extend the Upper Pillar
20mm more
, and tighten
the bolt firmly at
8 N.m
.
Now the final pillar length is fixed.
Now the stand is ready to be set up in your room. (see Fig. I)
1) Place the Top Rubber Cup against the ceiling then push up to compress the internal
spring.
2) While keeping the spring compressed,
3) Slide the Lower Pillar and align it correctly while bringing it in contact with the floor.
!
If you see red plastic part beneath the Top Rubber Cup when you setup
the pillar, it's the warning sign that the pillar is not extended enough.
Remove from the ceiling, adjust the pillar length properly, and try to
install again.
You will adjust the pillar length to match to your
actual ceiling height.
Make sure the Rubber Cup with spring is ceiling
side (see Fig. G). Do NOT set the cap upside down.
Loosen the M6x20 bolt of the metal ring on the
upper Pillar Joint. Do not loosen any other bolts.
Now the pillar will move up and down freely.

Grab the Upper Pillar and try to pull down in order to confirm if the Pillar Joint is securely locked.
!
This confirmation must be done. Minoura is not responsible for any
damage or injury if this step is not followed. If the stand has been set
up properly but the remains too short, contact your dealer and request
replacement parts.

To avoid any chance of the pillar falling, hold the Upper Pillar to the ceiling or
the wall with the supplied plastic tie, or directly hold the Top Rubber Cup to the
ceiling by screwing at the designated point. (see Fig. J)
This step is mandatory and critical that you complete.
Wrap the tie around the pillar just beneath the Top Rubber Cup and tighten it, put
the screw in the hole on the tip of the tie, then screw it to the ceiling or wall.
Make sure the area you choose to place the screw has a solid backing such as a
stud or similar. Do not install into dry wall only.
Loosen the M6x15 bolt of the lower Lock Plate,
slide it along the groove until it reaches the Lower
Pillar, then tighten the bolt firmly at
8 N.m
.
This will work as a stopper to keep the pillar in
place and at the proper length so it won't fall
down. Set it at the upper and lower Lock Plates.
