The arm tension is adjusted for the heaviest camcorder it can hold, so it does not bottom-out when you
put the camcorder and sled on it for the first time.
Now adjust Arm for the weight of your camcorder:
 With the Vest On, attach Arm & unlock the rig.
 Move Arm to the middle of its booming (up and down) range and let go (If it stays where it is, you are
probably close to the right adjustment).
 Keep making small adjustments until the camcorder does not rise or fall when you let go of it in the
middle of its booming range.
Arm Adjustment
Posion arm
 Move the camcorder to your left so the arm crosses your body.
 Adjust the arc of your arm so the rig feels comfortable to you.
 Keep the camcorder close to your body.
Bearing Maintenance
If aer some period of me the bearings stop running smoothly as when new, you can oil it with light
lubricang oil. We recommend using only a few drops, anything more than a lile will end up dripping
from bearing and onto the rest of your Arm. Be sure to keep the oil away from your Camera, and clean up
any over-spill when done.
Cleaning
Do not use solvents or harsh cleaners of any kind on Vista-II Arm & Vest. If the unit becomes dirty, use
only a cloth or sponge with water and a very mild detergent to gently rub the unit clean. Rinse well.
Storage
If you are going to store Flycam Vista-II Arm & Vest for a long period of me, then we recommend storing
it up-right in a dry or low-to-normal humidity area.
If you are unable to nd an environment like this, then we suggest you store the unit in an airght plasc
container or bag. Keeping the unit upright helps to lessen stress on the system.
