Leg to Bowl
Adjustment
The leg to bowl pivot joint on the Solo tripod should have no lateral
movement and should swing with a firm, smooth resistance. As this is
a spreader-less tripod, the leg pivot joint requires sufficient resistance
to hold the tripod legs together while being hand carried. Adjustment
is usually not required, however, should it become necessary, the
following procedure must be observed.
1 Lay tripod on a flat surface with legs closed in transport
position.
2 Using 17mm spanner (supplied), gently tighten nut to
achieve firm, smooth movement of the leg while still having
sufficient tension to hold the legs together when tripod is being
hand carried.
3 Check leg resistance by swinging leg fully open (using leg angle
adjuster) and ensure that all legs open with a similar degree of
effort. Tighten or loosen bolts as necessary.
Important: Remember not to over-tighten as this may
cause too much resistance when swinging the legs open.
