Please note: A lower counterbalance setting becomes
immediately effective in any tilt position. An increase of
the counterbalance setting will only be effective in the
horizontal position (Springs must click in audibly).

If you can’t manage to centre the camera, you should
move the camera plate to a different position on the tri-
pod mounting adaptor.
3.4 Setting of the damping
The Video 18 Plus and the Video 20 Plus are equipped with
seven damping levels horizontally and vertically and a zero
setting.
By turning the vertical setting and the horizontal setting one
selects the desired level of the fluid damping.
Turn the setting ring to “0” in order to switch off the dam-
ping completely. Make sure that you always turn the setting
to the next indexed position. Engage the retainer pins by
slowly panning or tilting the camera.
ATTENTION: Panning or tilting the camera with settings
between the indexed positions can damage the retainer
pins and/or disks.
If you set the setting rings on the same index number
(e. g. “3”) the degree of the horizontal and vertical damping
is identical and thus enabling precise diagonal panning
movements without jerks and vibrations.
3.5 Brakes
The horizontal brake applies the lock for the pan and the
vertical brake for the tilt movement. Both brakes are vibra-
tionless and can be used during shooting.
3.6 Change of the batteries
The illumination is powered by three standard type button
cells (625 U or LR9) located in the battery holder, which
can be opened with a sharp object such as a screwdriver.
