Instructions
1. While firmly holding the boom pole, loosen the twist locks and
extend the sections.
2. Once extended to the desired length, securely tighten the twist
locks.
3. To collapse the boom pole, loosen all twist locks and return the
sections to their minimized position. Once the boom pole is
collapsed, re-tighten the locks.
Note: The anti-twist alignment design makes it possible to loosen all
the twist locks at the same time.
While firmly holding the boom pole, grasp all of the twist locks with
one hand and loosen them all with one motion. Once the twist locks
are loosened, tip the boom pole downward, and the sections should
slide to their fully-extended
positions.
