Adjusting ‘Pozi-Loc’ leg clamps
1
Bedding-in occurs with ‘Pozi-Loc’ leg clamps, which may necessitate resetting the clamp. Check the
effectiveness of each leg clamp as follows:
1.1
Extend all three tripod legs fully and apply the clamp(s).
1.2
Position each leg in turn vertically on a set of weighing scales.
1.3
Gradually apply body weight to the leg until either or both clamps begin to slip. Note the reading
on the scales at which this occurs.
1.4
A reading of less than 35 kg (77 lb) will necessitate adjustment.
