Using floor spreader NOTE: Always use the spreader where possible as this increases rigidity of the tripod. Being flexible, the spreader compensates for uneven ground. It can be removed and a skid fitted. At the full extension of the spreader and with all legs fully retracted, the tripod can be used at its lowest operating height. -
Page 14: Servicing
Servicing General Vision products are robustly made to high engineering standards and little attention is required to maintain serviceability save regular cleaning. Attention to the following points will ensure a long and useful service life with minimum need for repair. Cleaning During indoor use, the only cleaning required should be a regular wipe over with a lint-free cloth. - Page 15 Align the wheel on the fixed leg so that it runs parallel to the leg. Using a suitable straight line on the studio floor, check that over a distance of 3.6 m (12 feet) the deviation does not exceed 5 cm (2 in.). Re-adjust the wheel until this is achieved. If it cannot be achieved, the wheels on the other two legs should be re-aligned.
