Troubleshooting

Wheels do not attach securely

Verify that your tripod legs have M10 attachment points. Ensure you are screwing the wheels in straight and not cross-threading them. Check for any debris in the M10 threads on both the wheel and the tripod leg.

Tripod feels unstable or wobbly

Ensure all three wheels are fully tightened. Engage the brakes on all wheels firmly. Check that the total weight of your equipment does not exceed the 100 kg maximum capacity.

Wheels are difficult to roll

Inspect the wheels and brakes for any obstructions or debris. Clean the wheels thoroughly. If the issue persists, the internal mechanism may require professional inspection.

Brakes are not holding the tripod effectively

Ensure the brakes are fully engaged. Clean the braking surface on the wheel and the surrounding area. If brakes are worn or damaged, contact customer support for potential replacement parts or service.
