Mount the camera
To prepare the clamp, push down on the black
button at the top of the mounting head and pull
the lever until it snaps into place.
Insert the front of the camera first, before
snapping it into the back.
Before releasing the camera, make sure the
camera is locked in securely.
To secure the camera further, tighten the lever by
hand to ensure no further movement is possible.
To remove the camera, push down on the black
button at the top of the mounting head and pull the
lever until the camera becomes loose.

Tips
Push the clamp and the levers to check that the
clamp is still tightly secured to the rail and that the
levers on the mounting head are also tight.
If you decide an adjustment to the clamp is
needed, remove the camera from the mounting
head, adjust the clamp, and re-secure the camera to
the mounting head. Do not loosen the clamp while
the camera is attached to the assembly.
If you move the cameras to adjust the field of
view, ensure they are fully locked down again before
continuing.

Warning: If using cherry-picker or scissor lift
to install the cameras:
Always follow the safety and compliance
instructions for your apparatus.
Ensure you remain within 1 m of the
camera and can gain sufficient height to
prevent you from having to reach or lean.
If someone is required to hold the
climbing equipment, ensure that they are
not positioned directly under it.

When carrying cameras at height, consider
wearing gloves that offer improved grip.

Warning: If the cameras are mounted where
they may fall and injure people or damage
equipment:
To prevent injury, we recommend that
anyone involved in the installation wears
a hard hat.
Tether the cameras to their mounts with
safety bonds (see Tether a camera, page
10).

Warning: When the cameras are in their
final positions, tidy any slack cable to
ensure it does not present a trip hazard and
if the cameras are installed at height,
ensure that no cables are dangling loose.
