Safety & Set-Up IntrodUctIon The FOCUS 10 Fluid Head is the ideal support for the latest smaller, lighter high-performance Cameras weighing from 0 to 11 kg (0 to 24.3 lbs). Extremely compact and lightweight, the innovative FOCUS 10 features a continuously variable fluid damping system on both Pan and Tilt movements and an unrivaled patented variable counterbalance which brings its range of use to cover all existing ENG and lighter high-performance cameras. The FOCUS 10 head comes equipped with a quick release sliding Camera plate, illuminated spirit level and telescopic Pan bar. Its tilting range is +/- 90° has a perfect response throughout the entire Tilt range. This Head interfaces with all 100 mm bowl base tripods and supports. 5 The extreme ruggedness and versatility together with a superior quality/ price ratio makes the FOCUS 10 the best possible support for news Operators and Videographers. Before using your new FOCUS 10, please read this user manual. Before installing the Fluid Head on the Tripod check the Tripod stability. Verify that the Camera payload (including lens and all accessories) is below the maximum capacity of the Fluid Head. Before setting up the Camera, make sure that the Fluid Head is in perfect operative conditions with no damages. 2. operatIng elementS 6 1 Camera plate 2 Pan bar attachment 3 Pan bar extension 4 Pan drag selector 5 Pan brake lever 6 Tilt brake lever 7 7 Camera plate release lever 8 Tilt drag selector 9 Spirit level & Battery 10 Counterbalance selector 11 Tie down knob 12 Pan bar 3. procedUreS Place the FOCUS 10 on your Tripod by loosening the tie-down knob (11) under the Fluid Head and level using the spirit bubble (9).
