Installation et fonctionnement

1. Deploying the Tripod

1. Dépliez les jambes : Gently pull the tripod legs outwards until they lock into position.
2. Ajuster l'angle des jambes : Each leg features an angle adjustment lock. Press the red button on the leg joint to adjust the leg angle for different terrains or stability requirements.
3. Étendre les jambes : Use the quick release flip-locks on each leg section to extend the legs to the desired height. Securely close the flip-locks to ensure stability.
4. Ajuster la colonne centrale : Loosen the center column lock knob to extend or retract the center column for additional height adjustment. Tighten the knob firmly once the desired height is reached.
5. Attacher la caméra : The tripod features a dual-head screw compatible with 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded holes for attaching a video head or camera directly. (Note: Video head and quick release plate are not included).

2. Conversion en monopode

One of the tripod legs can be detached and used as a monopod or walking stick. To convert:

1. Locate the leg with the foam grip.
2. Unscrew this leg from the tripod body.
3. Attach your camera or video head directly to the top of the detached leg to use it as a monopod.

3. Low Angle and Macro Photography

The center column can be inverted to allow for low-angle shooting and macro photography. To invert the center column:

1. Dévissez le crochet situé au bas de la colonne centrale.
2. Fully extend and remove the center column from the tripod body.
3. Reinsert the center column upside down into the tripod body and tighten the lock knob.
4. Reattach the hook to the inverted column.

Caractéristiques

• Trous filetés 1/4"-20 : Three additional 1/4"-20 threaded holes are integrated into the bracket for attaching external accessories such as magic arms, mobile phone holders, monitors, or fill lights.
• Crochet de stabilité : A hook is located at the bottom of the center column, allowing you to hang a weight (e.g., a camera bag) for increased stability, especially in windy conditions.
• Interchangeable Foot Screws: The tripod comes with stainless steel foot screws that can be interchanged with the standard rubber feet for enhanced grip on soft or uneven surfaces.

Caractéristiques

Entretien

• Regularly clean the tripod legs and joints to prevent dust and debris buildup, which can affect smooth operation.
• Ensure all screws and locks are tightened before and during use to maintain stability.
• Store the tripod in its carry bag in a dry, cool place when not in use.
• Évitez d'exposer le trépied à des températures extrêmes ou à des substances corrosives.

Dépannage

• Instabilité: Ensure all leg sections are fully extended and their flip-locks are securely closed. Verify that the center column lock knob is tightened. Consider hanging a weight from the stability hook for added balance.
• Mouvement de jambe raide : Clean any visible dirt or sand from the leg sections and joints. If necessary, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the moving parts.
• Camera Not Level: If using a video head, ensure it is properly mounted and adjusted. The tripod itself provides a stable base, but leveling is typically managed by the attached head.
