Troubleshooting

Stand sections are stiff or difficult to extend/retract.

Check for dust or debris in the telescoping sections. Gently wipe clean and try again. Ensure locking collars are fully loosened before attempting to adjust.

Stand feels unstable when loaded.

Verify that the stand is on a level surface. Ensure all three sections are fully extended and securely locked. Check that the total weight of the light and modifier does not exceed the 5kg maximum load capacity.

Mounting stud is loose or damaged.

Inspect the mounting stud. If it's a removable stud, check if it needs tightening. For permanent damage, contact customer support for potential replacement parts or guidance.

Carry bag zipper is stuck.

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or wax to the zipper teeth to help it glide smoothly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Unpack the stands and the carry bag. Extend the three sections of each stand by loosening the locking collars and pulling the sections upwards until the desired height is reached. Ensure all locks are securely tightened before mounting any lighting equipment. The stands feature a standard mounting stud compatible with most studio lights and accessories.

Compatibility: This set is designed to work with all major brands of studio lighting equipment. They are particularly recommended for supporting lights with medium-sized softboxes. The top mounting stud typically accommodates most standard lighting fixtures.

Care: To ensure longevity and optimal performance, keep the stands clean and dry. Wipe down the stands with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust. Avoid exposing them to excessive moisture or corrosive substances. Periodically check the locking mechanisms for smooth operation and tighten any loose collars. Store the stands in the provided carrying bag when not in use to protect them from damage and dust.
