SETTING UP THE TRIPOD
EXTENDING THE LEGS
Before spreading the legs apart, extend them to the desired
length, this will prevent tipping due to uneven leg extension.
To extend the legs, ip open the leg locks, pull the leg
extensions out, and ip closed the leg locks. Only work on one
leg lock at a time. Once all the legs are at the same length,
spread the legs apart to your chose angle.
Once the tripod is set up and the legs secured, several
adjustments can be made. These changes should be made
with extra care if the camera is mounted on the tripod.
HEIGHT
The center column can be raised and lowered. First loosen the center
column screw, then slide the column to raise or lower the center column.
Finish by tightening the center column screw.
ADJUSTABLE CENTER COLUMN (Illustration 3)
To release the center column, turn the center column locking knob
counterclockwise, adjust it to desired height, and then lock the column
by rotating the knob clockwise.
Now is also a good time to check that all the leg locks are tightened
before you put any equipment on the tripod.
On uneven surfaces and terrain, you can extend the legs to different
heights so that the camera is level and also stable.
ATTACHING YOUR CAMERA (Illustration 4)
To Use Quick Release Plate, rotate the lever to the right.
Pull the lever knob to release or lock the quick release plate
Now is a good time to tighten the tilt (vertical) control,
by tightening the tilt control knob clockwise, this will ensure that
your camera doesn’t tip off the plate when installed.
The QR plate has a screw. Locate your camera’s tripod screw
hole and align it with the QR plate screw. Tighten the screw as
far as possible by twisting the handle on the bottom of the QR
plate until the camera is rmly attached to the QR plate. Slide
the QR plate attached to the bottom of the camera back into its slot on the tripod head.
ENSURE THAT THE RELEASE HANDLE LOCKS FIRMLY INTO PLACE AFTER THE QR PLATE IS
RETURNED, SECURING THE CAMERA TO THE TRIPOD.
Do not let go of the camera until you are sure it is secured in place.
TILT
The camera can be tiled
downward or upward. Firmly grasp the tilt
control knob and loosen it by twisting it
counterclockwise. Position the camera at
the desired angle, then tighten by twist-
ing the tilt control knob clockwise. Test for
looseness before releasing.
PAN
The camera can be panned from side to side 360° by
loosening the pan control knob and then swiveling the
tripod head. The long handle should be used to pan for
more precise positioning of the camera. Tighten the pan
control knob to lock the camera position.
A HIDDEN SPRING HOOK (Illustration 7)
is located at the bottom of the Center Column.
For stable shooting, the hook can be used to hang sandbag or
equipment bag. Extend the spring loaded hook to the desired
position.
THE SMARTPHONE CLIP (Illustration 8)
Reveal the concealed smartphone clip by swinging out the tilt
lever handle pivot away from the shaft, according to the arrow
direction. The adjustable smartphone clip can be pulled up to
clamp a variety of sizes. Test the grasp the smartphone securely
on the clamp and use the head as you would with a camera.
CENTER COLUMN MONOPOD AND SELFIE STICK
The Center Column can be completely removed to create a
Monopod and Sele Stick using the Tripod Head Smartphone Clip
as the phone holder and a tripod leg as the extendable monopod.
First remove the bottom Spring Hook device from the column by
unscrewing it from the bottom. Loosen the center column
tightening knob enough so that the entire column is able to lift
free of the tripod. Now, replace the empty bottom end of the
column with the hole adapter cap. Unscrew the removable leg
from the tripod and attach it to the receiving hole threaded to
match the leg. Now you have an extendable monopod to hold
cameras or smartphones securely.
SAFETY & TIPS
Exceeding the suggested load of the tripod
can result in tipping or insufcient control when
panning/tilting. So don’t do it.
Always extend the legs to the widest area
possible. The wider the leg spread, the more
stable the tripod will be.
Ensure the head and camera is locked before
letting gravity take over.
Remove the camera, video device or
smartphone before moving the tripod
around or transport.
Do not shoot vertical video for monitors.
Except when your veiwing device is vertical,
of course.
Keep out of reach of children.
