Changing The Balance Spring - Vinten Vision 3 Operator's Manual

Changing the balance spring

The Vision 3 pan and tilt head is available in different balance spring configurations, which enables
it to balance a wide range of cameras.
If the head tends to fall away when tilted, a stronger spring should be fitted. If it tends to spring
back, a weaker spring should be fitted.
For advice on the spring for a particular camera, please contact Vinten Broadcast Limited or your
local distributor, or visit our website at www.vinten.com.
Spring strength is indicated by a number and colour, as follows:
