Troubleshooting

Stand feels unstable when extended.

Ensure all leg locks are fully tightened. Adjust the levelling leg to distribute weight evenly and firmly plant the stand. Verify that the total weight of attached equipment does not exceed the 25 kg capacity.

Leg sections are difficult to extend or retract.

Check for any debris or obstructions in the leg channels. Ensure the locking collars are fully loosened before attempting adjustment. Gently work the sections back and forth if stiff.

Mounting stud is loose or damaged.

Inspect the mounting stud. If it is slightly loose, attempt to tighten it if possible. If significantly damaged, contact Manfrotto support for replacement parts or repair options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Extend the legs evenly, ensuring all locking mechanisms are securely fastened. Utilize the single levelling leg to compensate for uneven ground. Attach your equipment to the top mounting point, confirming it is firmly secured.

Compatibility: The stand is designed to accept standard lighting and grip equipment with its top mounting point (typically a 5/8" or 16mm stud). Ensure your accessories have compatible receivers.

Care: Wipe down the stand with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use to remove dust and debris. Store in a dry environment. Periodically check all locking mechanisms and leg joints for wear or damage. Avoid exposing the stand to excessive moisture or corrosive elements.
