D. Checking the operation
After inserting the plug into the wall outlet and ground the product, check if the product works without problems.
C. Detaching the stopper of the balance arm
The stopper installed on the balance arm (which is movable in the perpendicular direction) will be required for after-
maintenance. Be sure to mount and secure the stopper in the reverse direction as illustrated.
After detaching the stopper, always check the upperend position of the arm. If it contacts the
lighting devices on the ceiling, adjust it according to the procedures described in the section
"Adjustment of the Balance Arm."
CAUTION
Mount the stopper in the reverse direction.
If the rotating is heavy, please loosen a rotation-restricting pin which is inserted in P.13 1-② approx 1 round,
using the flat-head screwdriver.

１．Adjusting the lift angle of the balance arm.
If the ceiling is low or the balance arm interferes with lighting equipment, adjust the lift angle
of the balance arm.
Rotate and adjust the adjustment screw in the counterclockwise direction to stop the arm at the
specified height. The adjustment differs depending on the angle.
The adjustment bar is packed together with this product and the operation manual
(A)In the case that lowering the upper-limit angle of the balance arm.
①Use the adjustment bar which is packed together with the
operation manual.
②Move the balance arm up and down and then set it in the
position where the adjustment screw hole can be seen in
the upper-limit angle adjustment hole.
③Insert the adjustment bar into the adjustment screw hole,
and rotate it into the “go down” direction.(See the
illustration above.)
※Since the amount of the adjustment is not constant,
check the balance each time the screw is rotated.
(B)In the case that rising the upper-limit angle of the balance arm.
①②Follow the same procedures as Item (A) above.
③Insert the adjustment bar into the adjustment screw hole,
and rotate it into the “go up” direction.(See the
illustration above.)
※Since the amount of the adjustment is not constant,
check the balance each time the screw is rotated.

２．Adjusting the balance of the balance arm.
If the dryer or the processor mounted on the balance arm is not balanced in the specified position,
then adjust the balance.
（Ａ） In the case that the suspended device goes up from the lower-limit position.
①Move the balance arm up and down and then set it in the position where the adjustment screw
can be seen in either of the two punch holes (See the illustration at the right).
②Insert the adjustment bar into the adjustment screw hole and rotate it in the (-) direction.
Since the amount of the adjustment is not constant, check the balance each time the screw is rotated.
（Ｂ）The suspended device goes down from the upper-limit position.
①Move the balance arm up and down and then set it in the position where the adjustment screw
can be seen in either of the two punch holes (See the illustration at the right).
②Insert the adjustment bar into the adjustment screw hole and then rotate it in the (+) direction.
Since the amount of the adjustment is not constant, check the balance each time the screw is rotated.
If the balance adjustment is imperfect, the suspended device cannot be held in the specified
position, which causes the main unit to descend during practice, resulting in burns or physical
injuries to personnel.
