USING THE TRIPOD

ADDING AND ADJUSTING A TRIPOD HEAD

The head mount can be removed and ipped over

to mount either a ¼ - 20 or 3/8 -16 head.

Once the head is mounted, tighten the screws

underneath to insure the head doesn't come loose,

even when torqued in the counter- clockwise direction.

EXTENDING THE LEGS

To extend or retract the leg sections, open the ip lock

at the end of each section, apply rm force in the

direction you wish.

To secure the leg in that position, close the ip lock.

Test the lock by placing pressure on the leg BEFORE

attaching the camera, if the leg sections collapse into

each other while the leg lock is closed, use an Allen

Wrench to tighten the leg locks. Open all legs to a

uniform height for maximum stability.

Once all of the legs are extended to a uniform height,

spread the legs apart until they are stopped by the leg

angle lock. For normal use the lock should be set to

the lowest step.

For low angle and wider leg spread, pull the leg angle

lock out to allow it to engage with a higher step, for a

wider leg spread. There are three leg angle positions:

85°, 60° and 35°.

For uneven terrain, steps, or other leveling

challenges, you can either extend the legs

to different heights to accommodate for

differences, or spread one of the legs wider

than another, or usually, a combination

of these options.

There is a bubble level on the top plate to

assist in leveling the tripod.

ADJUSTING THE FEET

When used indoors, unscrew the foot covers so

that the spikes are covered by the rubber feet.

These will ensure a better grip on smooth ooring,

and prevent damage.

For outdoor use or rocky ground, screw the rubber

feet down to expose the spikes. These will provide

better grip on soft or impressionable surfaces.

Remember to apply the rubber protectors as

needed before spreading the legs.
