5.1 The DS10/DS20 fluid head provides adjustment for tilt and
pan drag control (Fig 4.). Rotate clockwise to engage friction
resistance, anticlockwise to return to fluid action.
Note:
The fluid drag plate system has been designed to suit
most operating conditions. The friction drag adjustment should
only be utilised when extra resistance is required.
The DS5/DS10/DS20 fluid head features protective coatings, dust
seals and anti-corrosive fittings to ensure long and trouble-free
operation in extreme location conditions. To ensure optimum
performance throughout the life of the head Miller recommends
regular cleaning.
When the fluid head has been used in harsh environments (such
as sand, mud or salt water spray), wipe over with a soft damp
cloth as soon as possible. Use a soft brush to clean crevices.
Remove and clean CAMERA PLATE.
WARNING: Do not immerse a fluid head in any liquid.
WARNING: Do not use stiff brushes, abrasives or solvents.
Storage
When storing for extended periods: clean fluid head and place
in a safe, dry place, away from direct sunlight. The fluid heads
can be stored horizontally or upright. However, it is not advisable
to leave the head for extended periods with the tilt locked in an
extreme position, either forward or backward.
Maintenance
With the exception of cleaning, the DS5/DS10/DS20 fluid head
does not require additional maintenance. Miller recommends
periodic servicing by a Miller Authorised Service Agent. Miller
Authorised Service Agents must carry out all service and repair
work. Failure to observe this requirement may void warranty.
