the pan bar to suit the operators requirements by slackening the wing headed stud and moving the pan bar
and quadrant to the desired position. Retighten the wing headed stud.

and TILT BRAKE to the off position.
20 Check the freedom of movement in both pan and tilt axes and adjust the drag on each by means of the
PAN DRAG and TILT DRAG control knobs to suit, the operator.
21 The PAN BRAKE and TILT BRAKE must be applied if the camera is to be left on a static shot for any
period of time with the operator in control to prevent inadvertent movement.

CENTRE LOCK engaged.
WARNING!: The tilt centre lock must be engaged and the pan and tilt brakes must be
applied before any attempt is made to fit or remove any equipment mounted on the pan
and tilt head.
