SmallRig Side Handle (for Gimbals)

Operating Instruction

Product Overview

The SmallRig Side Handle for Gimbals 2786C is engineered to alleviate arm fatigue and offer accessory mounting points when operating gimbals. Its ergonomic design allows for a two-handed grip, distributing the weight stress more evenly. The foldable design facilitates easy storage and portability. It features an anti-twist plate on the side for secure attachment of stabilizers and cameras in various positions (front, rear, left). The handle connects to the gimbal's base using 1/4"-20 or 3/8"-16 screws and can be mounted on either the left or right side of the stabilizer. The cross arm includes multiple 1/4"-20 threaded holes, ARRI 3/8"-16 threaded holes, and cold shoe mounts for accessories like monitor mounts, magic arms, microphones, and wireless transmitters. A flat-head screwdriver is integrated at the bottom for securing mounting screws.

Safety Guidelines

  1. Environment: Avoid using the product underwater, in extreme temperatures (freezing or high heat), corrosive environments, or areas with excessive dust. Dry metal parts immediately after contact with liquids to prevent corrosion.
  2. Load Capacity: Do not exceed the product's maximum weight capacity. Overloading can lead to structural failure, deformation, or accidental drops.
  3. Cleaning & Maintenance: Clean surfaces with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using chemicals like alcohol or solvents. Store in dry, ventilated conditions for long-term preservation.
  4. Structural Integrity: Do not modify the product (e.g., drilling, cutting) as this compromises its structural integrity and increases the risk of drops.
  5. Malfunctions: Discontinue use immediately if you notice any deformation, unusual noises, or loose components, and contact support.
