1. Unscrew the protective cap from the tripod's mounting plate.
2. Align the ball head's base with the tripod's mounting screw (typically 3/8 inch).

2. Estensione delle gambe del treppiede

1. Release the leg angle adjustment levers on each leg by pressing the 'PUSH' button and pulling the lever outwards.
2. Extend the legs to your desired angle. There are multiple preset angles available. Push the lever back in to lock the angle.
3. To extend each leg section, twist the nut-type leg locks counter-clockwise to loosen. Pull out the leg section to the desired length.
4. Twist the nut-type leg locks clockwise to tighten and secure each leg section. Ensure all sections are firmly locked before use.

Istruzioni per l'uso

1. Normal Height Shooting

Extend the tripod legs and center column to achieve the desired shooting height. Ensure all leg locks and the center column lock are securely tightened for maximum stability.

2. Riprese dal basso

For low-angle shots, you can either spread the legs to their widest angle or invert the center column. To invert the center column:

1. Loosen the center column locking knob and remove the center column from the tripod chassis.
2. Capovolgere la colonna centrale e reinserirla nel telaio del treppiede dal basso.
3. Tighten the center column locking knob to secure it. This allows the camera to be positioned very close to the ground.

3. Conversione del monopiede

One of the tripod legs can be detached and combined with the center column to form a monopod. This feature is useful for situations where a full tripod is not practical or allowed.

4. Utilizzo del gancio per pesi

A retractable hook is located at the bottom of the center column. You can hang a weight (e.g., a camera bag) from this hook to increase the tripod's stability, especially in windy conditions or when using heavy camera equipment.

5. Changing Feet

The tripod comes with interchangeable rubber feet and spike feet. To change them, simply unscrew the current feet and screw in the desired type. Rubber feet are suitable for indoor and smooth surfaces, while spike feet provide better grip on soft ground or ice.

Manutenzione

• Pulizia: After use, especially in dusty or sandy environments, wipe down the tripod legs and joints with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp panno e poi asciugare accuratamente.
• Lubrificazione: Avoid applying lubricants to the leg locks or moving parts unless specifically recommended by BENRO. Excessive lubrication can attract dirt and hinder performance.
• Magazzinaggio: Store the tripod in its dedicated carrying case in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Ispezione: Regularly inspect all screws, knobs, and leg locks for tightness. Use the provided Allen wrench to tighten any loose screws.

Risoluzione dei problemi

• Il treppiede è instabile: Ensure all leg sections are fully extended and all twist locks are securely tightened. Check that the leg angle adjustment levers are fully engaged. Make sure the camera is properly mounted on the ball head and the ball head is tightened. Consider using the weight hook for added stability.
• Le sezioni delle gambe sono difficili da estendere/retrarre: Check for any dirt or debris in the leg lock mechanisms. Clean the leg sections and locks. Do not force the locks; ensure they are fully loosened before attempting to adjust.
• Il movimento della testa sferica è rigido o lento: Adjust the tension knob on the ball head. If it remains stiff, ensure no foreign objects are obstructing movement. If it's too loose, ensure the camera is not exceeding the ball head's weight capacity.
• Telecamera non montata saldamente: Ensure the quick release plate is correctly attached to your camera and then properly seated and locked into the ball head clamp.
