Farley Top Adjustment

[Tony C]

Is there a way to adjust the location of the joystick's uppermost position. As you can see, you can't get full vertical travel in the picture because the joystick would hit the forend. If there is no adjustment, a downward curved handle should work nicely.

Put a bend in it.

Yea, that's a simple enough solution.

I got an older Farely. never saw one like that.
The handles have a dog leg in them. Find a pipe fitter or Electrician. They will have a pipe/tubing bender to install a dog leg...........

That is the inexpensive Farley top , not a bad little unit except it works backwards if you are used to a regular Farley.

#1- A complete Farley (with Base) is capable of 6" of adjustable vertical

#2- If you cannot raise the bridge (rest) lower the river (bag),,,What is the height of your rear bag ?

#3- You can curve the handle, but that may not solve the problem

A higher rear bag would not help. The joystick is less than a foot long, and the knob extends about two inches above the front bag. If there is no adjustment built into the rest, a dog leg bend should work fine.

I just looked at my Coaxial Compact, it has bend previously mentioned.
PM me if you need picture.
