Prepare a clamp
If using a clamp, you must prepare it by fitting the
stud that comes with the clamp into the slot at top
of clamp.
To do this:
With your fingers, loosen the screw on the side
so that it doesn’t protrude through the slot.
Press the silver button on the side of the clamp
and drop the stud into the hole, leaving the
larger side of the stud exposed.
Release the button and tighten the screw on the
side again so the stud is held firmly in place.
The mounting head can then be screwed into the
top of the clamp, using the stud.
Fit the clamp onto the railing by opening the
clamp, attaching it to the rail and tightening the
clamp until it is secure on the rail.

Tips
Typical rail systems have circular cross sections.
For rails with rectangular cross sections, insert the
accompanying wedge into the clamp to maximize
the grip surface.
Secure the clamp to the rail in the desired
orientation (eg, for mounting the camera on top of
the rail or suspending the camera below it).
If the head has a “quick release” camera mount
feature, remove the mounting plate before securing
the head to the clamp.
Prepare a tripod
To use a tripod, ensure the screw and thread match
and screw the tripod head directly onto the stud on
the top of the tripod.
Ensure the clamp is secured tightly
enough to prevent any movement of the
camera.
If you're using a rail or truss, before
installation, ensure that the diameter of the
rail is of a suitable width for use with the
clamp.
Caution: When locking a tripod into place,
do not rely on the noise alone to indicate
that it is secure: push it to check that no
further movement is possible.
