Allen bolt. The tool must be tightened progressively, tightening using an "X" pattern. In order to hold the tool in the correct way , Tecnospiro recommends the use of headless Allen studs with ball tip for thrust pads. This component allows the tool to be held from all sides, with the pads adapting to the surface of the tool.

3.8.2.2 Assembly of the tool For the installation of the tool on Drum type B follow the guidelines below. 1- Remove the stud bolts from the outer ring (2mm Allen key). 2- Insert the tool into the drum. Align the holes on the outer face of the outer ring with the studs holding the tool.
3.8.3 Handlebar installation and working positions The head has 2 working modes: - 360° handlebar free rotation - Handlebar locking in one of the four positions (4x90º). Follow the guidelines below for the attachment and adjustment of the handlebars (whether type A or B).
3.9.1 Height and rotational friction adjustment The bar has 2 points for working height adjustment set 35mm ") apart. To set: 1- Remove the bolt (1) (4mm Allen key). 2- Move the bar (2) to the desired adjustment point and tighten the bolt (1) (4mm Allen key). 3- To regulate the friction of the Z-axis rotation, tighten or loosen the bolt (3) (3 mm Allen key).
3.10 ADJUSTABLE BALL JOINT WITH VERTICAL ADJUSTMENT - L M1202400 Z: Rotates 360º. Manual locking in any position. Plane XZ: ±90º. Manual locking in any position. Plane YZ: ±25º. Manual locking in any position. Stroke adjustable up to 175mm in Z-axis. S1 - S2 heads annex...
3.10.1 Operation Turning the knob (1) will lock the movement of the support (2). Turning the knob (3) will regulate the friction on the base (2) to adapt the smoothness of movement. Turning the lever (4) will lock the rotation of the whole assembly. 3.10.2 Height adjustment To adapt the vertical stroke of the assembly: 1- Loosen the stud bolts (1) (3mm Allen key).
3.10.3 Grip ends All variants of the "Manfrotto" L-head provide two ends for the attachment of the tool • End with four anchor points (direct clamping) • End with a single anchor point (clamped with a plate) CLAMPING WITH CLAMPING PLATE DIRECT CLAMPING •...
3.10.4 Adding oil SAE 5-10 hydraulic oil should be added in cases where the system still does not function properly (does not lock) after the friction and dipstick adjustment has been carried out. 3.10.5 Spare parts manfrotto nord 468MG 3.10.6 Spare parts MV30C904 VERTICAL HEADMEMBER AC006196...

3.11.1 Operation Activating the selector (1) will block the movement of the support (2). Turning the lever (3) will lock the rotation of the whole assembly. To adjust the friction, the smoothness of movement of the bracket (2). Loosen the two bolts (4) (2.5mm Allen key) and turn the cylinder assembly (5): - Turn counter-clockwise for smoother movement.
3.11.3 Cylinder stroke adjustment To adjust the cylinder stroke (2) to achieve effective locking, follow the steps below: 1- The switch (3) must remain off, so that the end remains free. 2- Loosen the stud bolts (1) (2.5mm Allen key). 3- Remove the cylinder (2) by turning it counter-clockwise.
3.13 HORIZONTAL AUTOMATIC ADJUSTABLE SWIVEL HEAD - LC M1202700 Maximum Torque: 25Nm X: Rotates 360º. Pneumatic locking in any position. Plane XY: ±90º. Pneumatic locking in any position. Plane XZ: ±25º. Pneumatic locking in any position. For operation [See Operation page 33].
3.14.1 Movement and locking The positioner (1) releases/locks the X movement (360°, 4x90°) To remove the rod, release the positioner (1) and remove the pin (2). The friction can be adjusted using the adjustment knobs (3). S1 - S2 heads annex...
