Pan and tilt brake adjustment
12 Following bedding-in, the pan and tilt brakes may require adjustment. The pan and tilt brakes should be
set so that the brakes begin to be applied after approximately one-third of the lever travel (Fig 4.4).
13 The tilt brake is adjusted by inserting a 2 mm hexagon wrench through the hole (2) in the bottom of the
tilt unit cover and turning the grub screw (1). To adjust the tilt brake, proceed as follows:
13.1 Operate the tilt brake lever (6) from the OFF to the ON position.
13.2 If brake pressure is not felt after approximately one-third of the lever travel, turn the grub screw
(1) clockwise until this is achieved.
13.3 Operate the tilt brake lever (6) to the OFF position and ensure that the platform is free to move.
14 The pan brake is adjusted by turning the locating pin (5). 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 (3) from the
underside of the head. To adjust the pan brake, proceed as follows:
14.1 Remove the payload from the head.
14.2 Remove the head from its mounting.
WARNING!: Remove the payload before adjusting the pan brake.
