Assembly

Please note: If parts have to be fastened with several screws, you must first loosely screw in all screws before tightening them.
- RSP 2motion and RSP Xtra Columns (5708/09):
  The column (1) can be attached to a wall with a load-bear-ing capacity using the rePRO wall mount (5614) or can be mounted in the rePRO base (5610) on a suitable substruc-ture.
- RSP 2motion and RSP Xtra Copy Stands (5710/5711):
  Attach the base (5) to the column foot provided (6) (fig. C). Then fasten the column (1) in the base (5) of the column foot:
Insert the column (1) into the base (5) from the rear so that the two pins in the base are inserted in the corresponding holes in the column. Attach the column to the base (fig. D). Check if the column is firmly attached to the base.
If applicable, move the copy stand with mounted column foot to its destined position and align the column (1) vertically with the help of the height-adjustable feet (7) and a spirit level.

RSP 2motion Copy Stand (5710) and Column (5708)

Slide the support struts (39) of the base board (4) from the front onto the side guides (43) of the lower carriage (2b) (fig. E) and fasten them on each side with two screws (40) with wash-ers (fig. F). (It may be necessary that a second person lifts the base board slightly at the front edge).
Then loosen the two fixing screws (42) with the 6 mm hex key and rotate the two eccentrics (41) with the 16 mm open-end wrench until the eccentrics are in contact with the underside of the side guides (43). Subsequently retighten the two fixing screws (42).
Control boxes (11a, 11b) for the carriages are marked “A” (for camera carrier carriage) and “B” (for the base board carriage). Connect the supply cables (9a) and (9b) to the respective sockets (15) of the control boxes (11a) and (11b) (connect A to A and B to B). Then connect the (identical) cable remote con-trols (19) to the sockets (14) of both control boxes.

RSP Xtra Copy Stand (5711) and Column (5709)
Connect the supply cable (9a) to the socket (15) of the control box (11a) and the cable remote control (19) to the socket (14).

Initial operation

Check that the mains voltage corresponds to the operating voltage given on the type plate(s) of the control box(es) (11a, 11b). Then connect the control box(es) with the mains lead(s) to the mains.
Switch on the control box(es) with switch (13). The switch will light up red.

Attaching the camera

The camera carrier (3) is suitable for all photographic, profes-sional, film, video and television cameras up to a weight of 10 kg (22 lbs.) (RSP 2motion) resp. 15 kg (33 lbs.) (RSP Xtra).
Fasten the camera by means of the mounting screw to the camera carrier (3).
The standard fitted 3/8“ mounting screw can be replaced by the 1/4“ mounting screw included. To do this, undo the screw (26) (e.g. with a coin) and replace the 3/8“ screw by the 1/4“ screw.
The mounting screw can be fitted in three different height po-sitions (28a, 28b, 28c) on the camera carrier (3).
Undo the locking screw (25) to move the camera sideways.
To adjust and tilt the camera, the camera carrier (3) can be tilt-ed upwards and downwards by a maximum of 90° and fixed in any position. Proceed as follows: Secure the position of the camera with your hand and loosen the locking screw (31). Align the camera. Use the fine adjustment handle (38) for sen-sitive adjustment. Then retighten the locking screw (31). The vertical position of the camera carrier (3) can be checked with the aid of the spirit level (27) on the camera carrier, and fixed to stop accidental movement by tightening the fixing screws (32). This is done with the 4 mm hex key.

Height adjustment

The height of the camera carrier (3) and the base board (4) (RSP 2motion only) is adjusted by a motorized drive and con-trolled by the cable remote (19). To move upwards and down-wards at low speed, press button s (16) or ▼ (18). For high speed also press button (17). The bottom of the cable re-mote(s) has a magnetic surface and thus adheres to the base board of 2motion (5710/5708), for example.
The column is equipped with a movable dead stop (35) that serves as a lower stop for the camera carrier carriage (2a) or an upper stop for the base board carriage (2b) of RSP 2mo-tion. Release the blocking screw (36) prior to moving the dead stop and tighten it again.

Horizontal adjustment of the camera carrier

Turn the adjusting cranks (30) to set the camera carrier hori-zontally. You can lock the position with the blocking screws (29).

Maintenance and care

All the moving parts are designed to operate without regular maintenance.
If it is frequently used, grease the spindle (10) from time to time with the grease supplied, also when becoming more noisy. Use only the Kaiser spindle grease (no. 000561200027).
If the travelling carriages (2a, 2b) show play, they can be read-justed. (Please only do this if necessary.) Use the following method. Undo the two front fixing screws (34) on both side parts of the travelling carriage with the SW4 (4 mm) hex key. Then tighten up the four adjusting screws (33) on the front evenly with the SW2 (2 mm) hex key. Make sure you do not overtighten the adjusting screws. Then tighten up the fixing screws (34).

Changing fuse

The control boxes (11a, 11b) are equipped with a fuse. Before changing it, pull out the mains plug. After pulling out the fuse holder (12) you can replace the fuse. Use only the specified fuse.
