Mounting instructions

Note: in this instruction we use a Canon 5D MKII body as example, the instruction
steps are similar for other camera models (except for the positioning of the “hex
screws” and “frame type” used).
Note: Do not over tighten the hex screws when clamping the “mounting frame”, this
will damage the “clamp plate”.

Please set the screws in the position related to the used camera
model using the provided “hex key” (in this example its in the left-left

position). Please slide the frame (in this example a CS-33 high
frame) between the “clamp plate” and “base plate” in a way that the

screws are positioned in the slots of the frame, than gently

tighten

the “hex screws”.
