Attaching the Camera
Please exchange by the following method to attach other heads or acces-
sories to this leg. Fix the Center Column of the legs firmly by both the
Center Column Locking Collar and the Center Column Stopper. Next,
tighten the Panning Lock Knob of the head firmly. The Pan & Tilt Handle
and the Vertical Tilt Handle are grasped and then, turn the head counter-
clockwise forcibly. The head loosens now.
Removing the Pan Head from the Center Column
Set the new head, or accessory on the tripod's threaded post, and turn
clockwise until it comes to a stop. Tighten the Panning Lock Knob and
turn clockwise slightly more.
Do not attach camera directly to the threaded post of the Center Column.
This can damage both camera and tripod.
When attaching the Pan Head to a tripod with a
small thread(U1/4) use the optional small
thread adapter.
Three Position Adjustable Legs
To change the angle of each leg, close the Leg
slightly, and then pull the Leg Angle Adjustment
Lock out. There is a choice of two other angle
positions.
After choosing the desired leg angle, securely
push in the Adjustment Lock.
To avoid unnecessary camera vibrations, try to
keep the Center Column height to a minimum.
Also use the larger legs first, when extending
the legs.
Extending the Tripod Legs
Flip up the Leg Lock Lever to extend or shorten
any of the individual leg sections to the desired
length, and press the Leg Lock Lever flush
against the Leg to lock.
