6 servIce
The tripod has been designed and built in a way to reduce as much as pos-
sible any maintenance, and to ensure problem-free over me.
Aer any maintenance operaon, the tripod must be tested to ensure that
it is working properly.
6.1 routIne maIntenance
Sport 200 should be carefully periodically inspected and any damaged part
immediately replaced to prevent failures that might compromise the per-
sonnel’s safety and the tripod funconality.
Aer being exposed to rain, salted water, sand dust or mud the tripod
should be cleaned of all residues with clear water, compressed air and a
non abrasive cloth. Carefully dry before storing.
6.2 extra maIntenance and spare parts
Whatever extra maintenance requires to be carried out by CARTONI’s own
technical servicing sta or an authorized service staon appointed by CAR-
TONI.
Informaon on authorized service staon sta can be obtained by contact-
ing CARTONI or
www.cartoni.com
For fast, eecve problem solving CARTONI should be informed of the
tripod model and the nature of the defect or its visible symptoms when the
problem arises.

! All maintenance on the tripod must be carried out by
competent and instructed personnel on the operave
and safety methods of the tripod; all warranty condions
are invalidated should any repair operaon be aempted
by anyone not authorized by CARTONI
! Items whose center of gravity (CG) is too close to the
opened tripod base diameter (Jib arms, Teleprompters,
ecc.) could cause the tripod to p over; use addional
precauon to avoid accidents.
6.3 decommIsIonIng
In case the tripod becomes beyond repair it should be placed out of service
or at least clearly labeled as “out of order”.
Since the tripod is largely made of aluminum and steel
most of its materials can be recycled.
Once a Sport 200 is decommissioned, it is advisable to separate its various
materials for dierenated ulizaon or disposal, according the naonal
regulaons. Since none of the materials used on the tripod are toxic or may
cause a risk to the health of its operators, they can be handled without the
need for any special precauons.
! The dismantling of the tripod at the end of its life must
be carried out by competent and trained personnel.
