Using the Ikan M - PTZ - PEDESTAL is easy. First, assemble the motorized tripod and center column as described in the user guide. Attach the quick - release plate to your camera and then mount it on the pedestal. Use the wired remote controller to adjust the height of the pedestal smoothly. The controller gives you precise control over the raising and lowering speed. When moving the pedestal, use the dolly. The cable guards on the dolly will keep your cables organized. For different shooting angles, you can adjust the height within the range of 39.2 to 109.8 inches. Also, take advantage of the sliding quick - release plate to fine - tune the camera position. Remember, the pedestal has a payload capacity of 66 lbs, so don't exceed this limit to ensure stability. When it comes to maintenance, keep the pedestal clean. Wipe it down regularly to remove dust and debris. Store it in a dry place, especially if you've used it in extreme temperatures. Check the cables periodically for any signs of damage, and make sure the wheels on the dolly are locked when you're not moving the pedestal.
