Varipole Support System
INSTRUCTIONS
Thank you for choosing the Impact Varipole Support System. The adjustable Varipole easily and quickly mounts between solid oors and ceilings, giving you a stable support system for backgrounds, re ectors, lights, or grip accessories. It was designed with a unique tension mechanism and locking system that exerts suf cient pressure to securely wedge the Varipole’s protective rubber ends between ceiling and oor.
To ensure your personal safety and the safety of your equipment, please read these instructions carefully on how to set up and use this equipment.
We trust that our Varipole Support System will serve your creative inspirations reliably for years to come.
Each Varipole package should include the following:
•Varipole support pole
•Top rubber cushion
•Bottom rubber cushion

Caution
Safe operation of the Varipole requires that it be tted between two rigid support surfaces. Make certain that you are engaging a solid ceiling and not pressing against unsupported ceiling panels. If you do not have a secure ceiling to engage, use a Varipole base.
Make certain that the handle is locked and the entire set-up is stable before proceeding. Verify that your set-up is stable each time after attaching or removing lights, paper drives, or any other items.
The Varipoles are not air-cushioned. Make certain that the poles are locked properly in place before attaching xtures or backgrounds. And make sure you remove all accessories and backgrounds before dismantling the Varipoles.
Do not exceed the following maximum load limits: Do not load any single Varipole with more than 55 lbs (25 kg). Do not load a crossbar with more weight than is shown in the diagram below.
