Installation Instructions
4. Install safety stop screws (Fig. 4 on pg 2). Safety stop
screws are not required, however they keep your lens and
camera secure when using a compatible QR clamp.
2. Attach the AP-552 plate to the lens using the four
enclosed M3 x 12mm screws (Fig. 2).
3. Drive the screw in until you first meet resistance, then
turn it about 30° farther to establish appropriate, but not ex-
cessive, torque. Do not over tighten; it is possible to shear
the head off the fastener with the hex key included.
Using Alternate Mounting Holes
The Standard mounting configuration shown in Figure 2 is typically
the most Ideal for use as a handle. However if you have a large cam-
era grip or are using the 552 in the orientation shown to the right, you
may choose to mount the lens using the alternate mounting holes.
