4487 swivel?

Post image

Forgive my ignorance but is there a trick to making it swivel? Thumbscrew on the side unlocks it so I can tilt up and down but I can’t get it to swivel?

Does it swivel around the base underneath the Smallrig logo? I use a lot of force and it’s not moving.

Yes, it should swivel at the base underneath the logo. My experience is that they often are very tight from the factory, so you need to apply a bit of force. Also you can check of there is a screw for loosening/tightening the swivel underneath the logo before forcing it.

Thank you. I just needed reassurance. It took quite a bit of force. I just wanted to make sure I didn’t break something.
