SLIK CORPORATION 853 Kayama, Hidaka City, Saitama 350-1231, Japan Carrying the tripod Phone 81-42-989-2141, Fax. 81-42-985-0210 ©2006 Printed in Thailand. Do not attach a camera directly to the pan head attachment screw of the center column. This may damage both your camera and tripod. Carrying a tripod with a camera left on can result in unexpected accidents. We therefore, recommend you to remove your camera while carrying the tripod. This product has been designed to handle equipment weighing under 10 kgs (22 lbs). Do not overload. Some equipments weighing under 10 kgs (22 lbs), such as long lenses, may not balance well due to its weight distribution. In such case, please use a larger tripod. Install the pan handles The pan handles are installed as shown with the long handle on the left, for pan and tilt movement; the short on the right, for vertical tilt. If you prefer to have it the other way around, the tripod will function perfectly. The vertical & tilt handle can be reset inside the pan & tilt handle by screwing from rear of the handle as shown here. Attaching the head to the center column Attach the head Using the pan head The head is installed by screwing it onto the center column’s 3/8" threaded post socket hole. 1. Loosen the panning handle, and the head will move freely front to rear. 2. Loosen the panning lock knob, and the head will rotate. Panning guide Three-position adjustable legs Removing the head from the center column 3. Loosen the vertical tilt handle and the level can be adjusted. The pan head is specially lubricated for smooth movement. 585 mm (23 1/12") Loosen the panning lock knob and rotate the base of the head clockwise to screw it tightly onto the center column. Tighten the panning lock knob and turn the head clockwise, using both handles, to tighten as much as possible. Unlock the panning lock knob for easy panning. Lock the panning lock knob tightly, then grasp the pan handle and turn the head counter-clockwise to loosen. Then loosen the panning lock knob and it will be easy to unscrew the head by rotating the base of the head counterclockwise. Attaching a Camera 1. Hold the camera firmly, and turn the camera mounting screw to engage the threads. 2. Lock the camera tightly with the knurled camera locking knob. 2. Remove the camera mounting screw through the large end of the mounting track. It’s a good idea to tighten the camera locking knob when a camera is not attached to prevent loss of the mounting screws. 3. Tilting the head forward makes it easier to attach the camera. 1. Release the leg locks by rotating one half turn. Because leg are grooved, the leg locks can be released in any order. Bubble Levels Operating the center column Two bubble levels are built-in for vertical and horizontal positioning. 1. The center column can be moved up and down by turning the elevation control handle. The center column tension adjustment knob adjusts the tightness of the column and helps prevent vibration. 2. After choosing the desired leg angle, securely push in the adjustment lock. When all legs are opened fully, the lowest position is 585 mm (23 1/12") from the ground. An optional short center column* permits shooting as low as 370 mm (14 7/12"). Positioning the elevation control handle Extending legs Changing the camera mounting screw 1. Both 1/4" and 3/8" camera mounting screws are supplied. The screw not in use is stored in the side of the camera platform. A rotating scale at the base of the head makes it easy to set exact shooting angle. To begin, set the mark at the base of the head on “0”. 1. When opening each leg, it will stop at the first (standard) position. To change the angle of each leg, move the leg a little closer to the center column and pull the leg angle adjustment lock out one click. The leg will be released and can be opened to the second position. To move to the third position, again pull the leg angle adjustment lock out one click. 2. The second section, form the top, in each leg has reference marks every 10 cm for precise height adjustment. Raise the elevation control handle into position by pulling out on the knob to lock it into place. Lower Center Column Tension Adjustment Nut 2. The worm gear column adjustment mechanism will not move even if pressure is placed on the head with the tension adjustment knob unlocked. Note-the column can be moved, with the elevation control handle, even when the tension adjustment knob is fully locked. Lower center column tension adjustment nut The lower center column tension adjustment nut is used when necessary to adjust the tightness of the center column.
