Introduction
1 The Vector 70/70H Pan and Tilt Heads 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.If the head becomes faulty reference
should be made to Section 5 of this manual, or the unit may be returned to Vinten Broadcasting limited or your
local dealer for repair.
Cleaning
2 During normal use the only cleaning required should be a regular wipe over with a lint-free cloth. Dirt
accumulated during storage or periods of disuse may be removed with a semi-stiff brush. Particular attention
should be paid to the wedge location faces of the wedge adaptor.
NOTE: Use only detergent-based cleaners. DO NOT use solvent- or oil-based cleaners, abrasives
or wire brushes to remove accumulations of dirt as these damage the protective surfaces.
3 Use out-of-doors under adverse conditions may require special attention and the head should be
covered when not in use. Salt spray should be washed off using fresh water at the earliest opportunity. Sand
and dirt act as an abrasive and should be removed using a semi-stiff brush or a vacuum cleaner.
