Abstract: A method, system, and device for manipulating of surveillance cameras and the like mounted on top of utility poles. The system comprises: a multi-link articulating mechanism connected to a base, having a distal end, and configured to change positions of said distal end between over the base and cantilevered beyond the base; an object support connected to at least two links of the mechanism and configured to rotate from upright position with the distal end being over the base to upside down position with the distal end being cantilevered beyond the base; a winch mounted to the object support having a cable extended through said object support and configured for attaching the detachable object; and control means configured to manipulate the detachable object between being mounted upright and hanged by the cable at a predetermined height.
