LEG ANGLE ADJUSTMENT
For stable support when shooting
on uneven terrain, each leg can be
adjusted to a preset angle.
1. Press and hold the leg angle
adjustment lock.
2. Set the angle of the leg to one of
the three preset positions.
3. Release the lock to secure the
leg at the desired angle.
CENTER-COLUMN ADJUSTMENT
The center column can be used to
adjust the height of the camera.
Fully extending the center
column after the legs have been
completely extended will place
the camera at the highest position
possible with this tripod.
1. Turn the center column’s
twist lock counterclockwise to
unlock the center column.
2. Adjust the center column to the
desired height.
3. Lock the column in place by
turning the locking collar
clockwise.
Note: To avoid damaging the tripod,
make sure the column is secure, but
do not overtighten.
