VariZoom VZMX-TA - Manual (Page 2)

The new linkage will slide over the stainless steel post on the trim
adjuster. Once the arm is fully loaded with a balanced sled, you can
proceed to correct the planar orientation of the arm. This is achieved by
loosening the large black knob on the underside and rotating the upper
and lower brass wheels.
The brass wheels cause the post to precess
(depicted at right), modifying the relative angle of
its axis, thereby changing the planar orientation of
the arm itself. There are two methods to achieve the
adjustment. *** Start by loosening the brass
thumbscrews on the end of the unit.
Here are the two methods:
1- With the arm & sled fully loaded, loosen the adjustable lever on the
underside and turn the brass wheels using the included lever to adjust
each wheel until the arm is level, then tighten the lever fully.
2 – If you wish, you can always make the adjustment unloaded, although
this will involve more trial and error
***IMPORTANT NOTE: As an added security measure, we recommend that
you lock down the position of the adjuster by tightening the brass
thumbscrews, thereby locking the brass wheels into place and preventing
unintentional loosening of the mechanism over the course of extended
shoots.
