SIM Stand mounting
•
Ensure that the stand is secure.
SIM Spring counterbalance system
•
Release the support arm from the (moving) park position (1/Fig.7).
•
Move the support arm slowly to the top position.
The support arm must maintain any position without using attached accessories and
without activating the auxiliary brake (2/Fig.7).
•
Use the rotary sleeve (2/Fig.7) to check the support arm's additional fixation points.
Readjust the spring tension:
- Remove cover (3/Fig.7) from the stand.
- Release the auxiliary brake on the support arm (2/Fig.7) completely.
- Move the support arm into the horizontal position.
- Tighten the nut (4/Fig.8) with a 17 mm fork wrench.
Adjust the spring tension to achieve equilibrium when the support arm is in the
horizontal position, so that the forces for raising and lowering the tube assembly
are the same.
SIM Chains of the spring counterbalance system
•
Remove cover (3/Fig.7) from the stand.
•
Carefully check the condition of the spring counterweight chains (5/Fig.8). Replace the
stand column if the chains are defective.
