Summary of Contents for Jimmy Jib STANTON 120 DUTCH ROLL

  • Page 1 STANTON 120 DUTCH ROLL If you are missing any of the following items, please contact Stanton Video immediately (602) 493-9505 Cradle Ladder Chain Trolley Counter Weight Assembly Dovetail Electronic Cables Servo Dutch Control Box Tilt Shaft DC Power Supply Safety Clips (2)
  • Page 2 ASSEMBLY Remove the Swing arm and Tilt Shaft from the head by removing the Snap Ring and Pinch Clamp. Pinch Clamp O-Ring Swing Arm Snap Ring Mount the Cradle by inserting the New Tilt Shaft into the cradle and secure with the Cradle Clamp Screw and safety clip.
  • Page 3 Next slide on the Counter Weight and lock it in place. In order to clear the electronic cables the Counter Weight should be as close to the end of the shaft as possible without covering up the Safety Clip hole. Insert the Safety Clip into the hole at the end of the shaft.
  • Page 4 For transportation it is necessary to disengage the Ladder Chain and slide the Servo forward. This is accomplished by removing the Drive sprocket. Roller Guides Cradle SERVO SERVO Slide motor back for Operation Slide motor forward for Transport The Ladder Chain is threaded through the Sprockets as shown below. The Idler sprockets should be as close to the Track way as possible.

  • Page 5: Mounting The Camera

    The blue Ladder Chain is tensioned at the factory. If it becomes loose you will find it necessary to tighten it. In order to tighten the Ladder Chain, first make sure the gap between the Idler Sprocket and the Track way is as small as possible.
  • Page 6 Reinsert the Dovetail and the Safety Screw. If the Dove Tail should slip the Safety Screws will prevent the Camera from slipping out. Safty Screw Dovetail Lock Loosen the Slide Knobs and move the Dove Tail to its Lowest point of travel then mount the camera to the Quick Plate.
  • Page 7 Make sure you tighten the Dove Tail Locks to prevent the dove tail from sliding out of position. Dove Tail Lock Dove Tail Lock VERTICAL CAMERA BALANCE Balancing the camera vertically is done in the same way as with the Standard Head. Slide the camera up until you find the vertical position of equilibrium.

  • Page 8: Horizontal Adjustment

    HORIZONTAL ADJUSTMENT Horizontal (Side to Side) Adjustment is the placing of the camera’s center of mass in the center of the trolley. This adjustment is not as critical as Vertical or Front to Back balancing. Normally, video cameras do not require any Horizontal Adjustment.

  • Page 9: Servo Controller

    SERVO CONTROLLER RAMP This is an acceleration ramp and works exactly the same way as the Ramp Adjustment on the main Control Box. LIMIT Controls the range of Dutch movement and provides movement limits to prevent the Trolley from hitting the ends of the track. GAIN Helps soften the movement of the Trolley but if turned down too far may effect the accuracy of the move.

  • Page 10: Electrical Cables

    The Cables that come with the Dutch Head Kit allow the Kit to be used on all Jib sizes out to the Extreme. The Dutch Head cannot be used on the Jimmy Jib II (solid bar stock head). NOTE: If you find it necessary to run the Dutch on battery power it will be necessary to power it from a separate battery pack.
  • Page 11 ELECTRONIC SETUP NOTE: Make sure the Clutch is loose enough to allow the Sprocket to “free wheel” on its shaft Idler Sprocket Drive Sprocket Clutch Screw Spring Washer Drive Shaft Taper Mount the Dutch Control Box to the weight bar and connect the Dutch electrical Cables Except the Servo. Make sure the unit is off and plug in the motor.
  • Page 12 Limit Adjustment This adjustment must be made very carefully as it will prevent the camera or trolley from striking the head or the ends of the track. This is basically a range control that limits the degree that the Head is allowed to rotate. Release the Clutch and rotate the Control Knob all the way to the Right.

  • Page 13: Cable Routing

    CABLE ROUTING Routing the Cables to the Camera on the Dutch Head can now be done. This process, when done for the first time, will probably take several hours so make sure you allow yourself plenty of time to do the Job right. Make sure you check cable clearance in Dutch Right and Dutch Left positions.
