Side-to-side adjustment resistance on ARRI Trinity 2 and DUB 3 positioning during balancing.

Note (as of October 2026)Curt O. Schaller, the developer of Artemis and Trinity, has no longer been with ARRI since the end of 2025. To our knowledge, ARRI currently has no dedicated team and no official contact persons for its stabilizer systems. In our view, the future of this line is uncertain. If you are buying new, get written confirmation from ARRI beforehand on how long service and spare parts are guaranteed. Have used rigs checked by the manufacturer before you buy.

What the thread found

  • The side-to-side adjustment on an ARRI Trinity 2 may resist movement if the mechanism is locked.
  • One operator resolved the issue by manually wiggling the DUB 3 (dynamic upper bracket) to free it.
  • According to the balance method, the DUB 3 should remain centered and not be moved during normal operation.

Depends on

  • The solution assumes the adjustment mechanism is not damaged; a video reference was provided but not accessible in this record.
