Safety Hints

ATTENTION: PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE USING IT TO PREVENT SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE GEAR!

The crane may not be assembled or operated under the inﬂuence of alcohol, drugs, or any other intoxicating substances. Lack of attention while connecting the components together can cause substantial damage to equipment/operator.
The crane may only be operated in a leveled horizontal position. Make sure that the surface is stable.
To prevent any harm or injury, properly join all sections of the crane. It is suggested to use the support stand while telescoping the complete length.
Always connect the steel cables properly to provide stability to the system. They should not negatively impact the movements of cranes in any way.
After the setup of the crane, the pan-tilt head/gimbal head shall be positioned under the central pivot section. In the assembled state, when the pan-tilt head /gimbal head is higher than the central pivot section, there should be someone to look after the crane system.
The complete panning & lifting range around it must be kept free. Avoid anybody standing under the crane. No loose objects may be stored or placed on it. Be very careful while using indoors.
Never operate the crane in the immediate vicinity of high-voltage power cables. It holds danger to life.
Particular care is required when operating the crane in unfavorable weather conditions. The crane must be shut down in sufficient time. When it is used on a rainy day, the pan-tilt head/gimbal head and controlling bar shall be protected against rain.
When you want to transport the crane, lock the Pan & Tilt Axis for safety. Make sure that the components do not rub together and cause any material wear.
Before the counterweights are removed, ensure the remote head is resting on the support stand. Then gradually remove the counterweights before the remote head, camera, or other parts.
In the interest of safe crane operation, avoid abruptly swiveling or stopping the crane, otherwise it may cause serious damage to equipment.
