This manual provides comprehensive instructions for the proper installation, operation, and maintenance of your SIRUI AM-DSH Double Handle.

Compatibility

The SIRUI AM-DSH Double Handle is compatible with the following DJI Ronin Series gimbals:

• DJI Ronin-S
• DJI Ronin-SC
• DJI RS 2
• DJI RSC 2
• DJI RS 3
• DJI RS 3 Pro
• DJI RS 4
• DJI RS 4 Pro

What's in the Box

Upon unboxing, please verify that all components are present:

• 1x SIRUI AM-DSH Double Handle Kit (includes left & right handles and lever arms)
• 2x Mini NATO Rails
• 4x M4x6 Hex Socket Screws
• 1x L-shaped Hex Key 3.0

Setup Instructions

1. Attaching the NATO Rails (for Ronin-S and Ronin-SC only)

For DJI Ronin-S and Ronin-SC gimbals, you must first install the provided mini NATO rails onto the gimbal's "Ronin Series Accessories (RSA)" port. Use the M4x6 hex socket screws and the L-shaped hex key to secure them firmly.

Gimbals such as RS 4, RS 4 Pro, RS 3, RS 3 Pro, RS 2, and RSC 2 have integrated NATO rail interfaces, allowing direct attachment of the handles without these mini rails.

2. Attaching the Double Handle

Once the NATO rails are in place (or if your gimbal has integrated NATO interfaces), slide the double handle's clamps onto the NATO rails. Secure the handles by tightening the NATO clamp lock knobs. Ensure both handles are securely fastened before use.

The NATO clamp and handle arms are designed with an anti-drop pin to prevent accidental detachment, providing an extra layer of security during operation.

Operating Instructions

1. Adjusting Handle Width

The arms of the double handle feature a sliding groove. You can adjust the horizontal width of the handles to suit your shooting requirements and comfort. Loosen the NATO clamp lock knobs, slide the handles to the desired position, and then re-tighten the knobs firmly to secure the width.

2. Vertical or Inverted Installation

The double handle arms include grooves on both the upper and lower ends. This design allows for flexible installation, enabling you to mount the gimbal in an upright or inverted position. This versatility is beneficial for achieving various camera angles and improving shooting flexibility.

3. Mounting Accessories

The SIRUI AM-DSH Double Handle is equipped with multiple mounting points to expand your accessory options:

• Cold Shoe Mounts: For attaching accessories like LED lights or microphones.
• 1/4" Threaded Holes: Standard mounting points for various camera accessories.
• 3/8" Threaded Holes: Larger mounting points, some with locating holes for anti-twist functionality.

These points allow for the attachment of magic arms, external monitors, microphones, wireless receivers, and other essential gear, enhancing your video production capabilities.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your SIRUI AM-DSH Double Handle, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe the handle with a soft, dry cloth after each use to remove dust and debris. For stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp cloth and then dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Storage: Store the handle in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Inspection: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten any loose components using the provided hex key.
• Avoid Overloading: Do not exceed the recommended maximum load capacity of 5 kg (11 lbs) to prevent damage to the handle or your gimbal.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your SIRUI AM-DSH Double Handle, consider the following common solutions:

• Handle feels loose: Ensure all NATO clamp lock knobs are fully tightened. Check that the anti-drop pins are correctly engaged.
• Accessories not securing properly: Verify that the accessory's mounting screw or cold shoe foot is compatible with the handle's mounting points (1/4", 3/8", cold shoe). Ensure screws are tightened adequately.
• Difficulty adjusting handle width: Loosen the NATO clamp lock knobs sufficiently before attempting to slide the handles. Ensure no debris is obstructing the sliding groove.
• Gimbal instability: While the double handle enhances stability, ensure your gimbal itself is properly balanced and calibrated according to its manufacturer's instructions.
