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 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 flaps of the Hood are magnetic so they will automatically attach.

Step 14

Place the riser below your camera and fasten the 1/4-20 camera screw to the bottom of your camera to secure it to the riser plate.

Step 15

Slide the threaded studs into the channel of the base. Make sure they are aligned to the spacing of the holes on the riser plate.

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 18

Mount your own tripod plate to the bottom plate 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.

Step 19

Slide the entire teleprompter system into the Sled. Once the teleprompter system is inserted, you can balance it by sliding it along the Sled until the center of gravity is determined.

Step 20

Once the center of gravity has been determined, tighten the thumb screws to keep the base from sliding.
