Front Mount 13x 3/8” hole, 2x 3/8” long hole, 4x M8 long hole. (drawing 2)
Turning the Front Mount under or over slung. Release 5 x M8 screws, turn around, and fix it
again.
Back Mount 49 threads (3/8”)(Drawing 4) for clamps and connectors available.
Mount the Hybris Shock Absorber to the 50 mm speed rails with 2-4 clamps. (Drawing 3)
Make a quick estimation of the mounting height, so that the set up isn’t mounted too low on
the tube/s. This could result that the camera is hitting the ground at the bottom of the shock
absorber boom range.
At this point, a quick estimation is all that is needed. You can fine tune this later, when you
have the gimbal and camera rigged.
Mount your gimbal and camera with all the accessories needed for your shoot, batteries
lenses cables etc., and let it float freely on the Hybris Shock Absorber.

Begin with adjusting the vertical arm dampener to its softest position. This is where the
dampener provides the least force. This is done by turning the knob (1) on the dampener.
(drawing 7)
Let the system hang freely on the Hybris Shock Absorber and look at the boom angle of the
shock absorber.
If the shock absorber is booming up that means that the springs are adjusted to strong and
you will need to release some tension. Unscrew the knob on the dampener until the Hybris
floats in horizontal position.
If the shock absorber, on the opposite, is booming down you need to tension the spring
knob. Tension it until the Hybris is horizontal. (drawing 6)
At this point, push the arm to its lowest and highest, most boomed down and up position,
and make sure the rig can’t touch the ground or top.
Keep in mind that in very uneven terrain, there may be bumps sticking up, so make sure to
have proper clearance based on your conditions.
To change springs – release 4 screws – put the required springs and close screws.

Spring adjustments:

Connect the Hybris Shock Absorber with any power supply
between 8-30 V DC.(drawing 1)
The cabel mini XLR to car supply is included in the Hybris kit.
You can control the Hybris manually or via the Hybris App:
Manually: The Hybris has 2 buttons with
a +/- sign(drawing 1),
that you can push to release or add resistance force on the
damping. (drawing 1)
App (Android/iOS): Connect your device (smartphone,
tablet, computer) via Bluetooth with the Hybris Shock
absorber. If the Bluetooth button is green you are
connected. The Hybris App has a bar for the vertical shock
absorption, that you can move to release or add
resistance force on the damping.

From the softest position, lift the total set up by booming the Hybris all the way up, and
force it with a sudden push to boom down and see its reaction. If the Hybris swings up and
down a few times after return to center, then the damping is adjusted too soft and you
need to add force. Add a few clicks on the dampener + button (manually) or pull the bar
to the right (App) and try again, repeat until the shock absorber swings only once when
forced and then it stops in center. Excessive swing is not ideal for the vertical stabilization.
Also, excessive force adjustment will make the boom action very stiff and make the shock
absorber less reactive.
That means that you need to be somewhere in between. That is also relative to the nature
of shot. If you intend to shoot on very rough terrain, for example, it’s better to be adjusted
little stiffer than usual as the bumps will have more effect on the set up. If the road is flat
and smooth, you can have a little softer adjustment.
After your adjustment, make a quick test run and correct if necessary.

Always clean the piston rods, remove mud, humidity and/or dust.
Always adjust the height of the set up, so that the camera is kept at a safe distance from the
ground or top.
When you add safety straps for the camera, make sure they’re long enough to allow for the
shock absorbers total boom range. If the strap is too short, it will keep the arm of doing its job
and might result in damage and vibrations.
Always run a quick check before and after the shot to locate loose screws etc. Especially if
you’re shooting in rough terrain.
Always make sure your gripping tubes and clamps are safely and securely configured, and
that the grip set up is safe.
When you store the Hybris shock absorber release tension of the springs.

Tips for safe handling
Danger Swallowing
0 -14
Children could swallow small magnets.
If several magnets are swallowed, they could get stuck in the intestine and cause perilous complications.
Magnets are not toys! Make sure that children don't play with magnets.
Do not dismantle the Hybris by yourself - Contact IDEA VISION GmbH for service if necessary.
Danger Electrical conductivity
Magnets are made of metal and conduct electricity.
Children might try to put magnets into a power outlet and thereby suer from an electric shock.
Magnets are not toys! Make sure that children don't play with magnets.

Notice Inuence on people
According to the current level of knowledge, magnetic elds of permanent magnets do not have a measurable positive or
negative inuence on people. It is unlikely that permanent magnets constitute a health risk, but it cannot be ruled out
entirely.
•For your own safety, avoid constant contact with magnets.
Notice Splintering of coating
Neodymium magnets have a thin nickel-copper-nickel coating to protect them from erosion. This coating could
splinter or crack due to collision or large pressure. This makes them vulnerable to environmental inuences like moisture
and they could oxidise.
•Avoid collisions of magnets as well as repeated mechanical exposure (e.g. blows, bashes).
•Do not dismantle the Hybris by yourself - Contact IDEA VISION GmbH for service if necessary.
Notice Oxidation, corrosion, rust
Untreated neodymium magnets oxidise quickly and disintegrate.
Most of our magnets have a nickel-copper-nickel coating to protect them from corrosion. This coating provides some
protection against corrosion.
•Avoid damages to the coating. Keep the Hybris clean and dry after using.
•Do not dismantle the Hybris by yourself - Contact IDEA VISION GmbH for service if necessary.
Notice Temperature resistance
Neodymium magnets have a maximum working temperature of -80 to 200°C.
•The Hybris has a working temperature of -30 to 80°C.
•If you use an adhesive, don't harden it with hot air.
Notice Mechanical treatment
Neodymium magnets are brittle, heat-sensitive and oxidise easily.
•When drilling or sawing a magnet with improper tools, the magnet may break.
•The emerging heat may demagnetise the magnet.
•The magnet will oxidise and disintegrate due to the damaged coating.
Stay away from mechanical treatment of magnets.
