Adjusting Leg Angle
To change the operation angle of any leg, fold the
leg in slightly towards the center column, turn the
One-Touch Low Angle Adjustment wheel half way
around (180 degrees), and pull the leg away from
the center column until it stops as illustrated below.
Split Center Column and Tension Adjustment
Screw for the Leg Connector
Your Sunpak TravelSmart tripod is equipped with a
Split Center Column (see illustration K) for low angle
heights. The tension for the leg connector can be
adjusted with an allen wrench (see illustration L).
Precautions
•
Insure that all levers, handles, knobs and
leg locks are properly tightened, and that all
three legs are fully angled opened before
use.
•
Do not mount any camera directly onto the
head mount screw located on the top of the
tripod’s center column. The screw may be
longer than the tripod socket in your
camera, and could possibly cause damage.
•
Do not carry or transport the tripod with the
camera equipment attached (as example
but not limited to: over your shoulder or
cradled in your arms).
•
Do not Oil or Grease any part of the tripod.
•
Do not use any solvents or thinners to clean
your tripod. Use mild detergent and wipe dry
with a soft, lint-free cloth only.
•
Do not store or expose your tripod to
excessive heat or cold or use close to any
flame or fire.
•
Do not exceed the load limit for this product.
