INTRODUCTION
Ball head designed for use with compact, 35mm and small digital camera.
SET UP
ASSEMBLING HEAD ON TRIPOD
0
&
e
Assemble the head on the tripod using 3/8" female thread "A".
p,..
The top plate on Manfrotto tripods are equipped with three set screws
ill
"M" which clamp against the base of the head to ensure effective and
secure locking.
MOUNTING THE CAMERA ON HEAD
Mount the camera on the head using 1/4" male thread "B".
p,..
Please ensure you have securely locked the camera on to the plate
ill
before use (fig. 2).
USEO
The lever "C" locks the movement of the head.
To release the ball "0" for positioning the camera, unlock lever "C" by rotating
until free position.
Once the desired position is achieved, lock the ball "0" by turning lever "C"
fully in a clockwise direction.
The head incorporates a separate friction adjustment for the ball movement,
which makes it easier to control the positioning of the head before locking it
off. To adjust the friction ensures the ball "0" is not locked (rotating the locking
lever "C" anticlockwise). Then hold the camera in one hand and rotate with the
other the knob "F" clockwise to tighten the friction, anticlockwise to reduce
the friction.
p,..
The friction does not allows the locking of the camera: we recommend to
ill
lock the ball "0" by fully turning the lever "C".
Note: The angle of the lever "C" can be repositioned as required without
effecting the lock itself. Pull the lever outwards, rotate as required and release
and it will locate in the new position.
