Jacob Waage Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 Hi all, Recently I've noticed some noise from my Zephyr arm while operating rigs in the top of the Zephyr's weight range. Can't tell if the sound comes from the springs or other parts of the arm. Anyone of you having the same experience? Any thoughts? Happy new year.

Premium Members Ryan Brooks Posted January 2, 2016 Premium Members Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 What does the noise sound like? Squeak? Grind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Baluk Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Probably a squeak, right? I get it too sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Members Ryan Brooks Posted January 2, 2016 Premium Members Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 I've had the same issue. Mine was coming from the base of the gimbal handle and where it meets the arm. Most often in the cold. I used a touch of lubricate. Helps.

Premium Members Victor Lazaro Posted January 2, 2016 Premium Members Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 A small spray of acf-50 around the arm's joints should do the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
