Step 3

Remove the monitor mounts from the teleprompter base using the included larger 4mm hex key to loosen from the 15mm rods.

Step 2

Secure the Glass Holder by fastening the knurled nuts to the screws as pictured below.

Step 5

After the monitor mounts are attached, adjust the 15mm rods to accommodate the monitor. Leave about 1 inch of room for the teleprompter bracket. Make sure the 15mm rods go through both set of monitor mounts. Please ensure that all screws are properly tightened after inserting the monitor. *SAFETY NOTE* Make sure to leave at least 2 inches of the rods inside the teleprompter base.

Step 6

While sliding the teleprompter bracket into the slot of the Glass Frame Holder Bracket, pull on the red knob to allow the bracket to fully slide in.

Step 7

Once the bracket is in place, tighten the side screw to lock in place. Double check and make sure all the screws are tightened with the included hex keys.

Step 8

Fold the flaps of the Hood alongside the edges of the Hood Attachment Frame. The Hood Attachment Frame includes six threaded clinch studs. Make sure to put the holes on the hood through the threaded clinch studs. The flaps of the Hood are magnetic so they will automatically attach and give extra support.

Step 12

If you need to use the Tall Riser Plate, you will need to use the Large Riser Bracket. Insert the Large Riser Bracket through the channel on the Tall Riser Plate The Large Riser Bracket includes a location pin for use with cameras that feature a location pin hole. If your camera does not feature a location pin, you can remove the location pin by unscrewing it.

Step 17

Fasten the screws to the threaded studs to secure the riser plate to the base.

Step 18

Mount your own tripod plate to the sled by aligning the 1/4-20 and/or 3/8-16 screws and fastening them to the Sled. It is recommended that you connect your tripod plate to front of the Sled so that you can balance your teleprompter easier. Once your tripod plate is connected to the Sled, mount the tripod plate to your tripod head.
