STA 01-398 Lowering Plate
Intended use:
This product is intended for use by profes-
sional and commercial photographers in a
studio environment with a high ceiling. The
wheels are designed to be used indoors on a
floor that is smooth, hard, flat and unobstruct-
ed. The Studio Stands with internal counter-
weight are designed to be used at all times
with a load (Camera or laptop shelf or
both). CAUTION: This product is not recom-
mended for use by hobbyists or in a house-
hold environment with a low ceiling or car-
peted floors. Carpeting or pitted surfaces are
not recommended because of the increased
rolling resistance which can cause the stand
to tip over. If the surface is not ideal, the
stand must be moved with CAUTION, very
slowly, using both hands one at the top and
the other at the bottom to steady the stand in
order to prevent the stand from tipping over.
If the surface is not ideal, lower the load to
waist level before moving the stand. We also
recommend the use of a sandbag or weight
attached at the base when conditions are not
ideal to prevent tipping over. Ultimately it’s
the users responsibility to understand how
the stand operates and to use the stand with-
in its specification limits, as intended to insure
their own safety and the safety of their equip-
ment. It is also recommended to use a short
tether cable to secure the camera to the
stand in the event that the head, head plate,
attachment stud or camera adapter plate
comes loose or fails. Some assembly is re-
quired, we recommend using an assistant
during the initial product assembly. lease
