Instruções de operação

The 3-way pan head allows for independent control over three axes of movement:

• Lateral Tilt (Portrait/Landscape): Loosen the lateral tilt knob to switch between portrait and landscape orientations. Tighten to secure.

Always loosen the appropriate knob before adjusting and tighten it firmly once the desired position is achieved.

2. Adjust the length of the individual tripod legs until the bubble is centered within the circle.
