When a device is screwed onto the quick release plate 2 you can, by sliding the locking device 8 on the side of the tripod plate 3, loosen the device together with the quick release plate 2 from the tripod plate 3. Thus, you do not always have to unscrew the device from the thread 1. 1) Remove the quick release plate 2 from the tripod. For this, slide the locking device 8 to the side so that you can lift the quick release plate 2. 2) Screw the required device onto the quick release plate 2. To do this, turn the screw - with the help of the handle on the underside of the quick release plate 2 - until the device is firmly seated. 3) To replace the quick release plate 2 complete with the device back on the tripod plate 3, slide the locking device 8 to the side and reposition the quick release plate 2. Then secure the locking device 8, such that the quick release plate 2 is firmly seated. Using the tripod When you have set the tripod up and the device is mounted on it, you can then adjust it as follows: Loosen the locking screw "High" 7 to a point where the crank q can be turned easily. Turn the crank q to adjust the height. When the desired height has been reached, firmly retighten the locking screw "High" 7.
