	depending on the length you require from the jib, either attach the final arm (the one with the camera plate) directly to the first arm(2 arm set-up), by sliding it on and tightening it in place, or attach the middle arm first and then the final one on top of it (3 arm set-up).		depending on the length you require from the jib, either attach the final arm (the one with the camera plate) directly to the first arm(2 arm set-up), by sliding it on and tightening it in place, or attach the middle arm first and then the final one on top of it (3 arm set-up).


	'''Attach the cable''' – one person should be at the back of the jib, holding the arms up until parallel with the ground (make sure the camera plate is parallel too). In this position, the other person should run the cable over the 2 pulley wheels (make sure the cable stays in its position correctly) and connect the spring to the cable loop.

'''Bags''' - All bags and cases must be stored in a safe location away from any thoroughfares.
'''Tripod''' - The LIBEC tripod must be set up correctly on even ground, ensuring the spreader is locked, the legs are raised evenly and do not slip under pressure (attach the braces if needed)

=== Induction checklist ===

'''Attach the main arm to the tripod''' -
Make sure that the head of the tripod is parallel to the ground and the tilt and pan are locked, and ensure you attach the pan bar to the tripod

The baseplate should always remain on the jib arm. Slide it in and make sure it is locked in place and that the tripod is at the height we need it at, and properly levelled.

'''Attach the other arm(s)''' -
depending on the length you require from the jib, either attach the final arm (the one with the camera plate) directly to the first arm(2 arm set-up), by sliding it on and tightening it in place, or attach the middle arm first and then the final one on top of it (3 arm set-up).
