[Setting up the tripod]
1For an extension tripod, adjust the legs to a suitable length and secure the leg clamps.
2Spread the legs to a proper extent for the tripod head to be nearly level and push them into the ground.
3Should the tripod head be off level, adjust it by expanding the legs accordingly.
NOTE:
•For a tripod setting place, be sure to select a place where the ground or floor has less vibration and there is no fear of upset.
•To set the tripod on a slippery floor, the legs must be secured. Use a chain (or similar) to keep the legs from spreading.
