Manual

1 Safety instructions

➪Pneumatic column is under pressure (up to 12 bar)

➪If one of the column lids has been damaged there is a

possibility of getting injured.Therefore only use the column

again after its repair by a service technician.

➪Don’t use the column before it isn’t correctly locked into the

dolly.

➪Never release the transport lock without load since it will

move up strongly.This may even cause injuries or damages.

➪Never push down column with applied “LOCK” or “DRAG”.

2 Characteristics

The Vario Ped 2-75 and the Studio Ped 2-75 are “true” two

stage pedestals for OB and studio applications, respectively.

They have an extended “on-air” stroke of 77cm / 30 inches.

Manual

Press down red slider at the side of the dolly and

swing out swivel arm at the same time, release sli-

der after disengaging. Make sure that swivel arm

locks again automatically in the desired position and

slider moves up.

1. locking position = standard track

2. locking position = narrow track (690mm)

Changing track is not possible when using the

Studio dolly.Lock at least one pair of wheels with the

wheel brake.

Check, whether the lock collar on the guide tube of

the dolly is opened sufficiently to receive the column.

3.1.2 Column

The contracted column with the transport lock enga-

ged can be carried on the exterior steering rod.

Place the column utmost vertical and in the right

position into the guide tube (watch position of the

side cardan).When the locating pin engages and the

column is in its lowest position the lock collar must

be tightened.Do not overtighten the lock collar!

By turning the steering wheel by a maximum of 180°

the steering column automatically engages into the

steering mechanism of the dolly.

3.1.3 Steering wheel

The steering wheel is attached to the upper gear

box with three screws.To lock it use the enclosed

hexagonal key, which is located at the side of the

dolly (4 mm).

Movable red clips, which serve as indicators for the

running direction, are located on the steering wheel.

3.2. Camera setup and column pressurizing procedure

Turn the steering wheel so that the recess for Quickfix ope-

ration is accessible (the two red arrows meet).

The hexagonal key (6 mm) located next to the dolly’s trans-

port boxes for trim weights opens the Quickfix camera head

lock.When opened, the red indicator pins move out. Fit the

pan and tilt head, close the Quickfix (red indicator pins

move in).

Caution: The Quickfix lock will accept all Sachtler flat

base heads directly or via adapter. Check for

compatibility before attempting to fit another

manufacturer’s head.

Only after the complete camera equipment is mounted on

the column (max. 75kg / 165lbs) the transport

lock should be opened by depressing the

column and disengaging out the locking lever.

Caution: Should the transport lock be released without

a load, the column will rise by itself.

The column should be filled with air.This is done with the

enclosed pump or a compressor (max. 12 bar in depressed

column position). A safety valve is installed in the system to

prevent overpressurizing the column.

In general the column is filled with a minimum pressure of

2 bar (29 psi) in order to secure a permanent tension on

the installed cables.This equals to a neccessary payload of

10 kg / 22 lbs.

Connect pump/compressor; the connecting valve is located

at the side of the Quickfix.

In order to compensate for any change in temperature

during a broadcast, three trim weights should be placed on

the column.

Now the column can be pressurized with air until it moves

up by itself.

Disconnect the hose from the column and press the center

pin of the valve to perform a fine adjustment for a precise

weight compensation.

3.3 Description of dolly functions

3.3.1 Wheel brake

Each pair of wheels can be locked individually by

pressing the red brake knobs (only the red area of

the knob is visible when brake is on).

Release the brake by pressing the knob again. If the

brake is off, the green indicator ring below the red

area is visible.

3.3.2 Switching from crab to steer

Press down red knob on dolly center for 3 wheel

drive (crab). Press again for 1 wheel drive (steer);

green ring is visible.Turn the wheel 180° to engage

the new steering mode.

3.3.3 Wheels and cable guards

To position the cable guards the clamping knobs on

the front and back sides are loosened and the guard

is moved to the desired height.Tighten the knobs

again.To change the wheels (e.g. mounting of OB

wheels) the two hexagonal bolts on the side (bottom

side of swivel arm) have to be opened with the enc-

losed hexagonal key (4 mm) and the wheel assemb-

ly can be removed.

To fit another wheel assembly, slide the wheel set in

and turn until the centring pin engages. Screw in the

hexagonal bolt tight.
