Fitting a camera

WARNING!
1. Do NOT rely on the tilt brake when changing the payload. Always
engage the centre lock.
2. Ensure that the weight and C of G height of the total payload is within
the range for which the head is designed: up to 75 kg (165.3 lb) with a
C of G height of 80–250 mm (3–10 in).
To fit a camera, proceed as follows:
Lower the mounting to a convenient working height.
If not already fitted, install the wedge adaptor [1] in the middle position on the slide plate
[14] (see Repositioning the wedge adaptor on page 14).
Attach the wedge to the camera/lens.
Ensure that the centre lock [16] is engaged (see Locking the platform on page 11).
Apply the pan brake [4] (see Pan and tilt brakes on page 11)
Slide the wedge adaptor lever [2] forward (parallel to the wedge) about 6 mm (1/4 in.)
against spring tension. Pull the lever out, away from the body of the wedge adaptor, as
far as it will go.
Insert the camera wedge into the wedge adaptor [1] and push it forward until it is fully
engaged. Push in the wedge adaptor lever [2], until it lies parallel with the wedge adaptor
body. During this operation the resistance of the spring-loaded over-centre mechanism
will be felt. As the lever reaches the end of its travel, it will snap into the locked position
(indicated by the closed padlock symbol above the lever).
Confirm that the lever is locked by briefly pulling it outward, away from the wedge
adaptor body. If the lever is locked, it should not move and the closed padlock
symbol only should be visible.
Install the remainder of the payload (e.g. lens, zoom and focus controls, viewfinder,
prompter etc.).

Balancing the head

NOTE:
It is important that the pan bar(s) and all camera accessories (lens, zoom
and focus controls, viewfinder, prompter etc.) are fitted in their operational
position before balancing the head.
Any equipment fitted or adjusted later will unbalance the head.
Balancing the head consists of positioning the payload fore and aft on the head so that its C of G
is immediately above the platform pivot, then compensating for the payload C of G height using
the Perfect Balance adjustment knob.
