• For scans close to the ground, slide all leg segments into each other before
setting the leg angle to “flat”. The rubber feet have a recess that helps to
achieve full-surface contact even with a flat leg angle. To do this, you must
turn the feet individually by hand.
• Ensure that the twist-lock sleeves for leg length adjustment, the central wing nut
of the tripod shoulder, and the tripod head are always tightly screwed together.
• Especially in locations where there is a risk of vibration, it is advisable to slightly
tension the tripod legs before starting a scan. Tension the legs by holding two
of the three tripod legs as close to the ground as possible with your hands,
pulling them slightly apart from each other and away from the third leg, and
then pressing them into the ground.
• In windy conditions, use sandbags to stabilize each foot of the tripod. You
can also stretch a rope or shock cord between the tripod’s center hook and a
weight, switchable magnetic base, or existing anchor point.
