CONSTRUCTING THE TAKAMA BACKGROUND SUPPORT SYSTEM 1. Take one of the 6’ Support Stands and loosen the knob (lefty/loosey – righty/tighty) that frees the legs. Open the 3 legs to their maximum spread. The 3 spokes that are attached to the center column and legs should be parallel to the ground for the best balance and safety.

By using 2 sections labeled “B”, the crossbar reaches the maximum of 10’. The sections join together by inserting the silver end of “B” into the matching opened end of tube “A”. You must press the protruding chrome pop-up button on “B” as you line up the tube hole and slide the silver end into the receiver hole of “A”.

6. In case you are going to use a short or a very light seamless roll on a core, you will need to leave on end of the crossbar unattached as you slide the rod through the core. Here is the time to use another person to help as the product will not be stable enough as weight is added to one side of the stand/ crossbar combination.
