Operating Instructions
3. Counterbalance Control
The counterbalance system was designed to neutralise the
effect of the camera weight when it is tilted. The Compass
Fluid Head offers a 16 position counterbalance system which
is operated with the CB SELECTOR RING and the CB PLUS
SELECTOR (Fig. 4). With the Compass
possible to disengage counterbalance (position zero),
NOTE:
Be careful when disengaging counterbalance as you could
damage your equipment with an unwanted tilt drop.
The CB SELECTOR RING and the CB PLUS SELECTOR must
be operated when the BASE PLATE is in a horizontal position.
After changing the counterbalance setting it may be
necessary to tilt the camera back and forth to ensure that the
CB spring has engaged.
3.1 For safety it is generally better to start at a higher
counterbalance position (e.g. position 14) and work your
way to the correct setting, this is to reduce any chance of
unwanted tilt drops (Fig. 4).
3.2 Hold the camera and release the TILT LOCK, then gently
tilt the camera from the horizontal position forward
then backward and observe its response. If the camera
'springs back' to the horizontal position then a lower
counterbalance setting is required, use the CB SELECTOR
RING to cycle through all even number positions (eight
positions including zero).
3.3 Finer adjustments can be made by engaging the CB PLUS
SELECTOR (upward direction).
3.4 Correct counterbalance setting has been achieved when
the camera does not spring back or drop when pan
handle is released.
