The Bright Tangerine Sliding Top Plate for RED V-RAPTOR is a precision-engineered rigging solution designed for professional cinematographers who require both stability and rapid accessory adjustments. It provides a highly secure foundation for mounting handles, gimbal plates, and monitors while maintaining full accessibility to the camera's essential top controls and cooling systems. While this plate significantly improves workflow efficiency and rigging versatility, it requires a secure four-screw installation process which means it is not designed for frequent "on-the-fly" removal during a fast-paced production day.

Clean the dovetail tracks with a clean cloth to remove dust or grit and ensure no small debris is caught in the rail.
Ensure you are utilizing the 3/8-inch anti-twist points; if your accessory lacks anti-twist pins, use a 3/8-inch screw with a washer to increase friction.
Check all four mounting screws to ensure they are tightened securely to the camera chassis.
To install the plate, align it with the mounting points on the top of your RED V-RAPTOR and secure it using the four provided screws. Ensure they are tightened firmly but avoid over-torquing to protect the camera threads. The plate is explicitly designed for the RED V-RAPTOR, ensuring perfect port clearance and fan alignment. For care, keep the sliding dovetail tracks free of debris and dust to ensure the quick-release mechanism remains smooth. If you are working in salty or dusty environments, wipe the rails down with a dry, lint-free cloth after your shoot to maintain the integrity of the sliding action.
