Safety Hints
ATTENTION: PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE USING TO PREVENT SERIOUS DAMAGE TO
THE GEAR!
 The crane may not be assembled or operated under inuence of alcohol, drugs
or any other intoxicang substances. Lack of aenon while connecng the
components together can cause substanal damage to equipment/operator.
 The crane may only be operated on levelled horizontal posion. Make sure that
the surface is stable.
 To prevent any harm or injury, properly join all secons of the crane. It is
suggested to use the support stand while telescoping the complete length.
 Always connect the steel cables properly to provide stability to the system.
 They should not negavely impact the movements of crane in any way.
 Aer setup of the crane, the pan-lt head / gimbal head shall be posioned
under the central pivot secon. In assembled state, when the pan-lt head /
gimbal head is higher than central pivot secon, there should be someone to
look aer the crane system.
 The complete panning & liing range around it must be kept free. Avoid
anybody standing under the crane. No loose objects may be stored or placed on
it. Be very careful while using indoors.
 Never operate the crane in the immediate vicinity of high-voltage power cables.
It holds danger to life.
 Parcular care is required when operang the crane in unfavourable weather
condions. The crane must be shut down in sucient me. When it is used in a
rainy day, the pan-lt head / gimbal head and controlling bar shall be protected
against rain.
 When you want to transport the crane, lock the Pan & Tilt Axis for safety. Make
sure that the components do not rub together and cause any material wear.
 Before the counterweights are removed, ensure the remote head is resng on
the support stand. Then gradually remove the counterweights before remote
head, camera or other parts.
 In the interest of safe crane operaon, avoid abruptly swivelling or stopping the
crane, otherwise it may cause serious damage to equipment.
FOLLOWING THESE GUIDELINES WILL PROVIDE BETTER SHOTS AND TROUBLE FREE
OPERATION.
