Set Up Instructions:
1. Setting Up The Tripod:
First, remove the contents from the box, then open up the tripod by holding
the legs in each hand and spreading them apart.
2. Mounting The Fluid Drag Head:
To install the fluid drag
head, position the head over the 75mm mounting bowl
located on the top of the tripod as shown in figure 1. Screw
the head adjustment knob onto the threads and tighten to
secure the head. This knob can be used to gain more tilt or
precisely adjust the angle of the panning motion.
4. Attaching The Pan Handles:
To attach the right and left
pan/tilt handles, position the handles with the handle screws
as shown in figure 1. Adjust the handle angle level and tighten
down.
5. Attaching The Quick Release Plate:
To first remove the quick
release plate from the head, loosen the quick release plate
adjuster then press the safety lock button in and slide the plate
off. Next, position the plate on the bottom of your camera
aligning the screw threads with the camera mounting hole, then
rotate the screw clockwise to tighten. Align and slide the quick
release plate back on the head until it is centered and you hear
the safety button click. Finally, tighten the quick release plate
adjuster to secure to plate to the head.
6. Height Adjustment:
Adjusting the height of the Ravelli AVT Tripod can be done by simply loosening
the leg height adjuster knobs in a counter-clockwise rotation, then pulling the legs downward until the
desired height is obtained. Tighten the leg height adjusters back down to lock the legs into place.
7.Adjusting The Tilt:
To adjust the tilt angle of the tripod, turn the tilt adjuster handle counter-
clockwise until it reaches the quick plate adjuster, then place your thumb on the white circle and pull
the handle outward. Turn the handle clockwise and release the handle back in. Repeat this process if
necessary to loosen the tension further and achieve the tilt angle desired. To tighten the tilt adjuster
handle reverse this process
Notes On Panning:
For smooth consistent panning, the pan adjuster knob can be fined tuned by either
tightening or loosening the knob until the right amount of resistance is obtained. Turning the knob
clockwise will tighten it and make panning slow and firmer. Turning the knob counter-clockwise to
loosen it and will make panning fast and easy. Finding the right amount of panning resistance will give
you smooth and optimal speed for great captures. We also recommend the use of sand bags to provide
greater stability when panning.
