1. Inserting rods into the
connector

Place soft box face down on a flat, clean

surface. Insert the first rod into any receptacle on the con-

nector (Fig 1)

Insert the third rod through fourth rods following the order
in the same fashion as rods 1 and 2 above; inserting a rod
then inserting the one diagonal to it.

With all four rods positioned in the connector make sure
that all rod tips are securely seated into the connector’s
receiver holes by pushing down firmly on the connector to
ensure.

It is also a good idea to go around the front of the assem­bles dome and check each rod to be sure that the ends are
extended to the end of each sleeve.

The initial construction of the soft box is complete.

2. Installing Inner Baffle

The inner baffle has Velcro® tabs at each corner. These
tabs connect to the Velcro loops on each inner seam of
theCineDome.

Connect each corner of the inner baffle to each Velcro loop

inside the CineDome. (Fig 3)

of the CineDome front. Starting at one corner, press the
face diffuser in place. Work your way around the rim of the

softbox until the diffuser is in place. (Fig 5)
