- అన్ప్యాకింగ్: Carefully remove the Boompole from its packaging. Inspect for any signs of damage during transit.
- Extending the Boompole:
Grasp the base section firmly. Twist the locking collars counter-clockwise to loosen each section. Gently pull each section outwards to extend the Boompole to your desired length. Once extended, twist the locking collars clockwise to secure each section firmly in place. Ensure all sections are tightly locked to prevent slippage during use.

- Attaching Your Microphone:
The Boompole features a standard 3/8-inch thread at its tip for microphone mounting. Screw your microphone's shock mount or clip onto this thread until it is secure. Do not overtighten. Compatible microphones include NTG-1, NTG-2, NTG-3, NT4, NT5, NT55, and M3.
- కేబుల్ నిర్వహణ:
For optimal performance and to minimize handling noise, route your microphone cable along the length of the Boompole. The Boompole is designed to allow internal cable routing for a cleaner setup, though some XLR connectors may be too large. Alternatively, use the provided Velcro straps to secure the cable externally along the pole, ensuring it does not interfere with extension or retraction.

4. నిర్వహణ
- శుభ్రపరచడం: Wipe the Boompole with a soft, dry cloth after each use to remove dust and debris. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp గుడ్డను ఉపయోగించవచ్చు, ఆ తర్వాత వెంటనే ఆరబెట్టవచ్చు. రాపిడి క్లీనర్లు లేదా ద్రావకాలను నివారించండి.
- సరళత: Periodically check the locking mechanisms and threads. If extension or retraction becomes stiff, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the threads to ensure smooth operation. (As noted in user reviews, greasing the threads can help prevent cross-threading and improve smoothness).
- నిల్వ: Store the Boompole in a clean, dry environment, preferably in its original packaging or a protective case, to prevent scratches and damage.
- తనిఖీ: Regularly inspect the Boompole for any signs of wear, such as loose sections, damaged threads, or cracks in the aluminum. Address any issues promptly to maintain optimal performance and safety.
