Mounting
Step 1. Set Rhino Arc on the Rhino Slider
carriage and turn it clockwise until it’s tight.
Rhino Arc is designed for use with 3/8” ball and fluid heads. It can
support up to 10 lbs of weight if it is centered over the unit.
TIGHTEN WHILE HOLDING BODY
DO NOT TIGHTEN WHILE HOLDING TOP PLATE
WARNING: Whenever you’re installing or removing Rhino Arc from the
carriage, make sure to apply force to the body of the unit and not to
the top plate. If too much force is applied to the top plate the internal
metal gears could get damaged.

Step 2. Using the included allen wrench, loosen the two set
screws identified with a white ring around them.
Position Rhino Arc so that the screen is facing the brake on the
carriage and lightly tighten the set screws.
Note: This step is only necessary on initial setup.

Leveling
Rhino Arc must be level before you start using it. Level your slider using your
tripod. If you don’t have a ball head under Rhino Arc you’ll need to ensure that
your slider is level. If you want to angle your slider you’ll need to add a ball
head, fluid head, or leveling plate under Rhino Arc to keep it level.
Note:
If Rhino Arc is at too much of an angle the rotating platform
may not turn depending on the weight of your camera.
WARNING:
When installing or uninstalling your ball or fluid head, hold the top
plate with your free hand to ensure you don’t stress the gearing.
