1st Time Installation

Fitting 100 mm Bowl Connector For The 1st Time 

Note! Fitting and adjusting the Bowl Connector to the tripod is a one 

time effort, once set, it is left on the tripod and remains ready without 

further adjustment required.

Install Bowl Connector to Tripod

1. 

Offer the Connector Stud to the tripod from above. 

2. 

Offer the Adjustment Knob through the underside of the tripod 

bowl.

3. 

Align the flats on the thread of the Connector Stud with the flat on 

the Adjustment Knob. See diagram below for the visual flat markers 

on the Adjustment Knob and Connector Stud.

Prepare the Bowl Connector

The Bowl Connector comprises two parts, the 

connector stud and adjustment knob.  
The assembly is supplied unscrewed but loosely 

assembled, pull the Connector Stud from the 

Adjustment Knob as shown.

flats

4. Push up the adjustment knob and keep pushing while turning 

clockwise.

5. 

Keep winding clockwise gently until the two half’s gently clamp the 

bowl. 

Note!

 The goal here is not to fully clamp the tripod as would be 

done with a traditional tie down, but to leave a small amount of 

spring free-play felt when the stud is pushed from above. If too tight 

the head will not latch properly.

6. Final adjustments will be made in the following section.

Visual markers show the 

location of the flats

To aid with fitting of the Bowl Connector for the 

first time, it is highly recommended to view the 

installation video . This will help ensure correct 

installation .
