Setting up this Head is not dicult. but reading these instructions
will allow you to get the most out of the product.
Assembling the SEVENOAK Gimbal Head is a simple matter of
attaching the Head's platform (detached to make it more compact
for shipping) to the swinging arm of the Head. Do not tighten the
platform knob unless it is mounted on the Head.
Align the platform jaws
properly with the dovetail grooves
in the swing arm. Slide the platform
onto the swing arm of the Head.
Slide the platform all the way
down until it hits the “stop” at the
bottom.
    Tighten the platform knob
firmly. (The platform should lock
securely to the arm without the
need to apply extreme torque).
The platform height will be adjusted
later if needed.
    Firmly tighten the lower (pan) knob.
    Position the Head with
the spool mounting hole (located
under the spool) directly over the
threaded tripod mounting stud.
It is important to keep the Head
completely straight (vertical) over
the stud to keep the spool threads
from cross - threading.
    Screw the Head clockwise
onto the stud of your tripod until
it seats the bottom spool of the
Head and the tripod mounting
plate. Use the leverage hole to
achieve a tighter attachment if
desired (see picture on right).Loosen
the pan knob slightly and rotate
the Head to check the security of
the mount. The spool should not
loosen when you turn the Head
counterclockwise, and the Head
should not wobble at all.
If your tripod has a smaller ¼” mounting stud , check to see
if it is a reversible stud with a 3/8”-16 threaded section on the
other end. If so, reverse the stud and use the 3/8” end of the
stud. If the ¼” stud is not reversible, you will need to use a
reducer bushing to mount the Head to the tripod.

Prerequisite: In order to attach your lens to the SEVENOAK
Gimbal Head, it must be fitted with an Sevenoak style quick
-release plate or foot (see details below).
To attach your lens to the SEVENOAK Gimbal Head, it must be tted
with an Sevenoak quick-release plate or foot (included).
Attaching Your Lens to The SEVENOAK
Gimbal Head
Prerequisite: Sevenoak
Quick Release Plate
Step 1:
    Tighten the tilt knob of the
swing arm-make sure that the Head’s
platform is level so that the Head is
stable while you are loading your lens.
Step 2:
    Open the jaws of the quick-release
clamp wide enough so that the jaws
clear the entire width of the QR plate
attached to the foot of your lens.
Step 3:
While supporting your lens,insert
the quick-release plate on your lens into
the jaws of the clamp and tighten the
clamp securely.Make sure the
quick-release plate is seated properly
and captive in the clamp jaws before
letting go of the lens.

Position the Head's platform at its lowest position and parallel to the
ground. Tighten the Head's tilt knob. Mount your lens (with camera
body attached). Stand behind the lens/camera setup and hold the
camera body as if you are going to take a picture.
STEP 1: Preparing to Balance:
Loosen the tilt knob of the SEVENOAK Gimbal Head SLOWLY
-stand ready to catch the lens or camera body should one
end or the other rapidly tilt down! Adjust the horizontal
position of the lens forward or backwards depending on
how the lens tips (see figures below). SAFETY NOTE: Re
-tighten the clamp after each adjustment, no matter how
small! Use the two safety stop screws provided with your
lens plate or replacement foot to prevent the lens/camera
combo from sliding out of the clamp when loosened.
If the front of the lens tilts downward
you will need to slide the lens back in
the clamp, towards you.
If the front of the lens, tilts upward
you will need to slide lens forward,
away from you.
STEP 2: Balance the Horizontal Position of the Lens:

This screw applies
pre-tension to the pan base (so there
is no slop in the mechanism), and
adjusts the minimum drag for the pan
base. You should not have to use this
adjustment on a regular basis. The
minimum drag is the amount of resistance
in the pan mechanism when the Head is
not tightened. We have set the minimum drag for your Head
to a level that we feel is optimal for field use. You should not
need to adjust the screw unless you experience an undesirable
change in the Head's minimum drag as the Head wears in.
CAUTION: Only a very small adjustment should be necessary: do
not remove the screw or back it out excessively. Doing so could
compromise the screw's ability to lock in place and the performance
of your Head.
Firmly tighten the pan knob, then turn the Head counterclockwise.
It should loosen easily from the platform during therst rotation.
If the Head has been on the tripod for a while, more force may be
necessary to remove it. The pan base screws do not tighten the
Head to, or loosen it from, the tripod mount.
Removing the Head from your tripod
Few things are likely to go wrong with the SK-GH02, and there should
be almost no need for routine maintenance of internal parts. However,
if the Head is in need of repair we ask that you return the Head to us
for inspection and service.
If the Head is faulty we will fix it free of cost during the warranty period.
If the problem arises from extreme use, abuse or accident. we will
repair the Head for a reasonable fee.
If You Have a Problem With Your Head
Adjust the position of the lens in small increments until it remains
level when the Head's tilt knob is loosened.
Note: because there is some damping friction in the tilt mechanism,
the lens may stay level even when it is slightly unbalanced. This is
okay, but if you wish to ne tune the balance even further, gently tilt
the lens up 20 degrees from level and then down 20 degrees from
level. If it's easier to tilt the lens up, slide the lens slightly forward.
If it's easier to tilt the lens down, slide the lens slightly back. Keep
adjusting until the resistance is symmetrical.
Proper Horizontal Balanceav
Once you have properly adjusted the forward-backward position of
the lens, you may need to adjust the vertical position of the lens
(especially telephoto lenses smaller than a 600 f/4 or 400 f/2.8).
Loosen the platform wing knob and adjust the vertical position of
the platform so the center of the lens is slightly above the tilt axis of
the Head (see gure below).
STEP 3: Balance the Vertical Position of the Lens

Adjustment
Platform Knob
A vertical scale and a 360° panoramic scale allow for easy
adjustments and repeatable pans, while a large pivot tension knob
enables smooth tilts. A separate knob locks the panning motion,
for more complete adjustment control. 1. Carry a small ball head or leveling head, attach a quick-release
plate to the bottom of it, and attach the ball head directly to the
clamp on the SEVENOAK Head. This eliminates the need to adjust
the legs of the tripod to level the horizon or to remove the SEVENOAK
Head, but it can be inconvenient to have to carry an extra head with
you.
2. Use a small beanbag with the Head: you can set the beanbag on
the top of the Head itself, or on top of your big lens while it is still
attached to the Head.
Other alternatives for attaching the camera
body to the SEVENOAK Gimbal Head
In extreme situations where it is not feasible to send the head in for
repair, and you wish to attempt to fix a problem yourself, you do so
at your own risk these guidelines will help improve your odds of
success and help you to avoid making the situation worse. Note:
Anyeld repair should be followed up with a proper repair from
us as soon as possible.
Emergency Repairs
Tilt Mechanism: To disassemble the
tilt mechanism, remove the captive
screw in the knob and unscrew the
Tilt Knob. If you need to remove the
grease in the mechanism, it is okay to
use the tilt mechanism without grease
until you have the opportunity to send
it to us or service.
Pan Mechanism: Remove ONLY the
large central hex screw on top of the
Pan base to disassemble the pan base.
DO NOT loosen or remove the three
smaller screws, and do not attempt to
remove the Pan Knob. If you clean the components
of the pan mechanism, you MUST apply oil to all mating
surfaces before reassembling, failure to do so could
cause the mechanism to gall and freeze-up permanently.
The goal is to perfectly balance the lens so it stays pointed in any
position even when the locks are completely loose. Fine tune the
vertical and front/back position of the lens until you've achieved
perfect balance. Once you have done this a few times, it gets much
easier to do and will take very little time to achieve as you get more
practice.
TIP: Once you are able to let go of the camera/lens combo in any
position with the tilt and pan knobs loose and it stays in a balanced
position without moving at all you may want to mark the exact
position of your lens plate within the clamp and your platform
position on the tilt arm with a pencil, permanent ink marker or tape
for faster set up in the eld.
The Head is now ready to use. Simply loosen the pan and tilt knobs
about a quarter turn and start shooting. If you have done everything
properly, the lens should be very easy to point, should stay pointed
and should not tend to op or creep. As you become more familiar
with the Head you will be better able to make ne adjustments in the
balance of your setup. You can shoot with the knobs loose, or locked-in
on a target by tightening the knobs. You should not need to loosen
the knobs more than a few turns to unlock the Head. Conversely,
there should be no need to over tighten the knobs. If things don't
feel right. please contact us. Knob screws are captive and should not
loosen or come o on their own.
The tilt and pan knobs should tighten with enough friction to keep
the Head from moving on its own. The pan base and swing arm
should not move easily when the knobs are fully tightened. of
signicant force is applied, the Head will slip slightly on the spool
when the panning knob is tightened all the way. THIS IS NORMAL
AND DOES NOT AFFECT PRODUCT PERFORMANCE. When using the
Head you can put a small amount of friction on both the pan and
tilt to hold the position of your lens and rotate it with a bit of force
as needed. This is not going to damage your Head. Only a single turn
or two of the pan and tilt knobs should allow you to loosen and tighten
the mechanisms for uid motion or static shots. You should avoid
unscrewing any of the knobs all the way, and there should be no need
to over-tighten them.
MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING:
A 7/32 hex key ts the 3/8-16 center screw on the top of the pan
base of your SEVENOAK Gimbal Tripod Head (see gure at right).
Fine Tension Adjustment of Your Pan Base
Loosen the tilt knob and tilt the front of the lens up about 30 degrees
towards the sky. Then when you let go of the lens, if it wants to keep
going up in the direction that you've tilted it, you need to lower the
position of the lens by adjusting the position of the platform. If the
lens wants to return to a level position you need to raise the position
of the lens.
We strongly discourage you from disassembling this unit without
direct instruction from us. Any damage to the head resulting from
disassembly will not be covered by the warranty. In special cases
where an emergency repair is required, please refer to the guidelines
below.
