Shoulder Strap
SOLO’s Shoulder Carry Strap can
be used looped (both ends
attached to the mounting point on
the bowl), to carry the tripod on
one shoulder,
OR
it can be used attached to the
bowl and the Leg Strap “D” ring,
to carry the tripod across your
back with fluid head towards the
ground.
Leg Pivot 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.
