Adjusting the pan and tilt brakes

(Fig 10)
The pan and tilt brakes should be set so that the brakes begin to be applied after approximately
one-third of the lever travel. The tilt brake is adjusted by inserting a 2 mm hexagon wrench
through the hole [5.2] in the bottom of the tilt unit cover and turning the grub screw [5.1].
To adjust the tilt brake, proceed as follows:
Operate the tilt brake lever [5] from the OFF to the ON position.
If brake pressure is not felt after approximately 1/3 of lever travel, turn the grub screw [5.1]
clockwise until this is achieved.
Operate the tilt brake lever [5] to the OFF position and ensure that the platform is free
to move.
The pan brake is adjusted by turning the pin [4.3]. To gain access to the pin it is necessary to
remove the payload from the head, remove the head from its mounting and remove a cover plate
[4.1] from the underside of the head.
To adjust the pan brake, proceed as follows:
