Step 4: Balancing the Pan Axis
The entire mass below the pan motor must be balanced on the central axis line of the pan motor. To
achieve this balance, you must slide the pan axis slider.
1. Open the clamp [1] on the pan axis and turn the knob [2] to slide the assembly. Identify if the
Ronin-M is front heavy or rear heavy.
2. While the Ronin-M is resting on the tuning stand, try rotating the Ronin-M along the pan axis by
lifting one side of the handle bar. If the camera does not swing, the pan axis is properly balanced.
Tighten the clamp after balancing is completed.
Advanced Roll Adjustment
If additional roll adjustment is needed in cases where the camera itself is too light in comparison to the
tilt motor assembly, advanced roll adjustment can be achieved by loosening the indicated screws and
pushing the assembly to the right or left.

1. Loosen the camera base's side clamp to allow the camera and mounting plate to slide forwards
and backwards. Slide the camera forwards or backwards until the Tilt Axis remains level. It takes
very small adjustments to get the balance right.
2. Tighten the side clamp to lock the camera and mounting plate in position. If properly balanced, the
camera should be able to remain steady in any given tilt angle.
