Hd Tripod Mounting Options - Vinten FH-145 User Manual

Mounting the Pan Bar Assembly (FH-145)
For manual operation, mount the pan bar assembly to the camera
cradle. Offset pan bars increase the range of movement and improve
manoeuverability of large and unwieldy payloads. The pan bar
assembly can be mounted on the left- or right-hand side of the
camera cradle.
1.
Fit the pan bar assembly
to the cradle. Insert rods
into openings ensuring
they cross at least two
mounting points.
2.
Tighten the screws
underneath the openings
to secure the assembly.
3.
Attach the pan bars to
the rosette mountings.
