Operation
Adjusting the Drags
The fluid head is equipped with horizontal and vertical drag controls.
The drags help to eliminate jerks and vibrations when moving the fluid
head during filming. The drags can also be fully disengaged.
!
CAUTION! Always set the drag adjusters to the index
positions. Setting the drag adjusters between index positions
can cause serious damage to the fluid head.
1 . Turn the horizontal and vertical drag controls to the required index
position by aligning the arrow with the dot marker. Turn the brakes
off and engage the drag by slowly panning or tilting the camera.
2 . Turn the drag controls to the 0 position to switch off the drag
completely.
Applying the same drag setting to the horizontal and vertical
controls enables precise and even diagonal movement.
