Basic Functionality The levelling base has a locking knob on one side (a) to lock or unlock the leveller. The friction of the levelling base is controlled by the D-ring on the underside (b). To adjust the friction of the leveller, simply loosen or tighten the D-ring. The Levelling base features a ratchet function in the knob which enables you to reposition the locking knob if it cannot turn due to its position(c).
Legs, catches & locks In order to change the leg angle you will need to press down on the Rapid Latch leg catch (a) manoeuvre the leg into the desired position and then release the catch. You don’t need to press the Rapid Latch to stow your tripod. To open and extend the tripod legs simply grip the twist locks in your hand, quarter turn (clockwise as you look down on it), loosening the legs allowing you to select a desired height.
Cleaning It is advised that you wash your tripod after using it in salt water, sand, dirt or mud and this can be done by undoing each leg. Take each individual leg lock and unscrew until completely undone, and gently pull the tubing (a) out, being careful not to lose the nylon shim (b) (chicken lips), allowing you to clean the threads of the legs. Once cleaned, dry all the parts with a clean cloth. Do not leave them to air dry.
