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.

Prevent accidental equipment fall, or tripod tipping over, by making sure all levers, knobs,
and handles on the tripod are securely tightened, and that all three legs are opened all the
way.

Do not attach camera directly to the threaded
post of the Center Column.
This may damage both camera and tripod.

Washer Ring

Attach the two Pan Handles to the Pan Head, by inserting the shorter
handle to the left, and the longer handle to the right. Do not reverse.

 	


Remove the Vertical Tilt Handle from the Pan Head, and screw into the
back of the Pan & Tilt Handle.
Make sure the washer ring on the thread stays on with the handle.

Attaching the camera to the Quick Release Platform

To remove the Quick Release Platform from the Pan Head, turn Quick
Release Lock Lever and lift out Platform from its back.

Loosen the Vertical Tilt Handle, and the level can be adjusted.

When loosening either the Pan & Tilt Handle, or the Vertical Tilt Handle, take
precaution by keeping a firm grip on the handle until the Pan Head is locked
down.

Removing the Head from the Center Column

Align the length of the Platform along the base of the camera body, and
securely tighten the Mounting Wing Nut.

Use the following instructions if you wish to change heads, or attach
accessories.
First, lock the Panning Lock Knob, then grasp the Pan, or Vertical Tilt
Handle and turn the head, counter-clockwise to loosen.

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.

Three Position Adjustable Legs
Caution

When attaching the camera to the Pan Head, check to make sure that the
Quick Release Platform is engaged in the catch of the Pan Head before
locking the lever.

The Quick Release Platform can be attached to the camera body in either
directions (along the length, or along the width).
This feature facilitates your camera set up into the vertical position, simply
by the turn of one of the tilt handles.

After choosing the desired leg angle, securely push in the Adjustment
Lock.

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.

Loosen the Panning Lock Knob, and the head will rotate along the horizontal
direction.

Remove the center column Base Stopper and
then, remove the lower part of the center column.
Put the center column Base Stopper on the
upper part of the center column.
