ZG RIG QUICK-START AND KEY POINTS GUIDE
The ZG Rig is a precision instrument that requires
proper care to maintain its mechanisms:
1 – Tensioner Knob must always be tightened close to
the max to prevent unwanted play in tilt mechanism.
The tension adjustment is only effective in a very small
turning range, and the whole mechanism must be
clamped together tightly to work properly and prevent
damage.
Failure to operate the ZG Rig with the tensioner
knob tightened will result in severe damage.
2 - Safety Lock prevents the ZG Rig from flopping
over when you set it down. With the tilt mechanism at
a right angle, you can loosen the red knob and slide
the safety lock into the slot on the tilt mechanism.
Disengage the safety lock to operate or adjust the
ZG Rig.
3 – Vertical Adjustment allows you to adjust
the center of gravity depending on the size of
your camera. There are two key parts:
-The position lock lever should always be fully
tightened (DOWN) when you are operating
the ZG Rig with a camera.
operate the ZG Rig with the lock lever fully
tightened will cause severe damage.
-The adjustment knob raises or lowers the
camera platform, but the position lock lever
must be loose (UP) to make the adjustment.
Do not force the knob and make sure the
lever is loose when adjusting.
