how to install Panasonic FEC-3640WM Mounting Bracket for Pan/Tilt Head
- Prepare your workspace: Clear a clean, flat surface and gather all included mounting screws and tools. Inspect the bracket for any transit damage before installation. Ensure you have the correct Panasonic pan/tilt head and verify that the mounting pattern on both components matches standard configurations.
- Align the bracket with the pan/tilt head mounting plate: Position the FEC-3640WM so that its mounting holes align with the corresponding holes on the pan/tilt head plate. Take a moment to visually confirm alignment to prevent cross-threading or misalignment during tightening.
- Attach using the provided hardware: Insert the mounting screws through the bracket and into the head’s mounting plate. Begin threading by hand to ensure threads engage smoothly, then tighten securely with the appropriate screwdriver or hex tool. Avoid overtightening to prevent damage to mounting threads or the bracket.
- Check alignment and clearance: After securing, test the range of motion to ensure there is no contact with cables or other rig components. Adjust if necessary to maintain clean clearance around wheels, gears, or connectors during pan and tilt operations.
- Secure cables and perform a functional test: Route power and signal cables away from moving parts and fasten with Velcro or ties as needed. Power the system and perform a few controlled pan and tilt motions to confirm stability, balance, and smooth operation. If any wobble or misalignment is detected, recheck mounting hardware and tightening torque.
- Finalize setup and document compatibility: Record the setup configuration for future rigs or rentals and store spare screws in the included hardware kit. This helps preserve consistency across shoots and ensures quick reassembly in the future.
