REMOVING THE FRICTION CAP
The Friction Cap needs to be removed in order to change detent discs. The discs
provide the means for establishing and changing the number and spacing of the
angular increments of the tripod head. The two discs that come standard with
the KiWi 2000/2020 provide for 14 and 18 shots per revolution. Use the 18 position
detent disc when capturing images with the normal wide-angle setting of the
camera. Use the 14 position detent disc when using the optional Olympus Wide
Conversion Lens WCON-08 for the Olympus C-2000Z and C-2020Z camera.
To remove the Friction Cap, loosen the silver colored Retaining Knob which is lo-
cated on the side of the Friction Cap. It does not have to be removed from the Cap,
but only backed out far enough to allow the Cap to be unscrewed from the axle.
You can look into the opening in the center of the cap to see when the Retaining
Knob is clear of the hexagonal-shaped axle. Rotate the cap counterclockwise and
remove it from the unit.

Once the Friction Cap has been removed, separate the Vertical Bracket from the
Indexing Hub. You might need to wiggle the pieces as you pull them apart.
