5.2 Assembly boom
■
The boom consists of three parts, which are connected by means of
two spigots. The front end features a fixture for devices with 5/8“ spi
-
got. The mounting adapter can also be installed laterally. This allows
devices to be attached in many different ways.
■
The rear end of the boom is equipped with a holder for the counter-
weights. The counterweights are enclosed in the form of sandbags,
which are placed on the bracket with the help of their three eyelets
to prevent slipping. The counterweight holder can also be moved by
means of the knurled screws [R] to balance the boom for use.
■
The middle part of the boom is optional. If it is omitted, the boom
becomes correspondingly shorter.
■
The bracket for the boom encloses the boom and holds it firmly. The
boom can be moved within the bracket. Therefore, there are two
ways to mount it:
5.2.1. Assembling the Boom,
Method 1:
■
Put the middle part of the boom [E] through the boom bracket [B].
Screw the bracket lock tight enough to prevent it from slipping.
■
Insert one of the connectors [C] into the middle part of the boom
and screw it tight using the provided screws and the hexagon socket
wrench. Repeat this with the second connector on the other side of
the middle part of the boom.
■
Now screw the two end pieces onto the connectors in the same way.
Make sure that you really tighten the screws.
■
Now place the boom with its bracket [B] on the tripod and tighten the
Boom Lock [L].
5.2.2. Assembling the Boom,
Method 2:
■
Place the bracket [B] on the tripod and tighten the lock [L]. Now
assemble the boom as described in method 1 (5.2.1), but without
placing it in the bracket [B] during assembly.
■
When you have assembled the boom, remove the screw of the
bracket for end devices [P] from the front part of the boom. Guide the
boom through the bracket for the boom [B] and tighten it. Replace
the screw for the bracket for end devices on the arm and tighten it
as well.
■
Mind the correct positioning of the adapter spigot. The screw must
be tightened on the slimmer part of the mounting adapter. This will
reliably prevent detachment of the bracket including your equipment.
CAUTION
Risk of injury and crushing. Proceed with caution. Also observe the safety
devices for the stand legs.
5. Assembling the stand:
■
Set up the folded stand as shown. Open the locking screw [J] of the
stand star. Carefully fold down the individual legs and make sure that
the locking devices also engage. Now tighten the screw [J] of the stand
star again. Lock the brakes on the castors as soon as the legs are
unfolded and locked.
■
The stand features one riser. To adjust the height, open the stand lock
[K]. Adjust the riser to the desired height and lock the stand lock [K]
again.
