8. Bring the jib arm into the horizontal position and insert the rod locking pin into the closest
hole in the parallelogram. Adjust the rod lock adjuster to reduce any play.
9. Hold the front of the jib to compensate for any shift in weight and carefully remove the front
locking pin.
10. Adjust the parallelogram leveller until the front is level.
11. Mount the required fixtures to the front of the jib but always consider the shift in balance.
Note: To avoid the sections jamming, after using the jib and the camera (weights etc
already removed), always shorten the front of the arm first, then adjust the rear
section. When adjusting the length of the arm, remove the camera!
