them down by fastening the rod set screws until fully tightened.
7. On the underside of the slider, position the camera base so both belt
clamps are accessible.

into one of the belt clamps and fully tighten the belt clamp locking knob to
secure the belt.
10. Thread the belt through the closest pulley and back through the slider,
keeping the belt taut. Make sure the belt’s teeth lock into those of the
pulley, and that the belt doesn’t twist. (Fig. 5)

clamp.
12. While pulling the belt taut, fit it into the belt clamp and fully tighten the
belt clamp locking knob.

flywheel handle (see Attaching the Flywheel Handle).
ADJUSTING THE FEET
Place the CS-HCS-60A Pro Camera Slider on a steady surface. For
enhanced artistic control over your images, you can adjust the angle and
length of the feet to manipulate the orientation of the slider and achieve
creative camera angles. The onboard bubble levels can be used to help
achieve level shots.
ANGLE
To change the angle, loosen the thumbscrew (Fig. 6), adjust the angle
(Fig. 8), and tighten the thumbscrew to lock down the new position .
LENGTH
To extend the foot, (Fig. 7) first rotate the foot to the desired length and
then hold onto the rubber foot while rotating the washer in the opposite
direction so it travels up the threaded post to secure the new position.
To retract the foot, first rotate the washer down the post so it sits firmly
against the rubber foot, and then rotate the foot in the opposite direction
so the it retracts.
