Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Drumstix rods, simply slide them into the 15mm ports of your camera baseplate and tighten the locking levers. If you need a longer rod, insert an M12 rod joiner into the female end of one rod and screw the second rod into the joiner until it is flush. To maintain the structural integrity of the rods, avoid over-tightening locking levers, as this can mar the surface of the aluminum. Periodically clean the rods with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust or grit, which could otherwise cause resistance when sliding accessories on or off. Store them in a padded equipment bag to protect the finish and ensure the threaded ends remain free of debris.
