操作步骤(简体中文)

在使用三脚架前，把脚架的高度和角度调整到合适的位置，以确保三脚架能平稳地放置在一个水平面上，然后把相机固定在三脚架云台上面，确保脚架和云台完全锁紧，防止照相机意外滑落。

三脚架角度调节：（如图1所示）

为了适应凹凸地面或者低角度拍摄，美孚脚架外拔式角度调节片，更容易调节高低两个角度。调整好角度后，请确保把角度调节片推到锁紧的位置。使用完脚架后，拔出脚管角度调节片，美孚独特的脚管可进行反向 180°折叠，以便减少占用空间，利于携带。

三脚架高度调节：（如图2 所示）

顺时针1 80°旋转脚管锁紧旋钮，直到每节脚管都可以自由伸缩，调节三脚架的每支脚管到要求的长度，然后逆时针旋转脚管锁紧旋钮，直到脚管完全锁紧。重复以上操作，调节三脚架到您所需要的高度。注意：在调节脚管时，务必取下相机等设备，避免意外损坏。

可伸缩二级中轴-仅限0 #：（如图3所示）

逆时针拧开中心管锁紧旋钮，拉伸中轴调到合适位置，然后顺时针旋转中心管锁紧旋钮锁紧中轴，记住不要过度锁紧中心管锁紧旋钮，这样会毁损坏螺纹。注意：装有相机等设备时，小心调节中轴，松开中心管锁紧旋钮时务必握紧中心管，请遵照说明书进行操作。

可伸缩中轴-仅限1#、2#：（如图4所示）

逆时针拧开中轴锁紧旋钮，把中轴调到合适位置，然后顺时针旋转中轴锁紧圈锁紧中轴，记住不要过度锁紧中轴，这样会毁损坏螺纹。

中轴倒置-仅限1#、2#：（如图5所示）

倒置中轴可以拍摄特写镜头、复制图片和拍摄难接近的物体。将挂钩座组件拧开，拧松中轴锁紧圈将中轴取出，将中轴倒置然后锁紧，中轴有防转槽，反转安装中轴时注意要将防转槽对齐切口。注意：倒置中轴时，请务必卸下安装在中轴上相机或其他器材。

三脚架转换为独脚架-仅限1#、2#：(如图6所示）

a、将弹簧挂钩从中轴旋出，拿出中轴； b、将带海绵套的脚管从脚管接头旋出； c、中轴云台组件与脚管组件装配；完成三脚架到独脚架的转换。

可伸缩挂钩（如图7所示)

在刮风时，需要挂上重物增加三脚架的稳定性，可在挂钩上挂上沙袋，照相机袋或类似的物品。注意不要超重，否则反而会影响三脚架的稳定性。

云台使用说明

美孚双重保险球型云台带有三个旋钮，通过阻尼

进行调节与锁紧，有独立的水平调节功能，并且通用快装夹带有二代安全锁紧装置。

通用快装板

带有通用快装板的双重保险球型云台，可以快速取下相机以及摄影设备。快装板上使用的是 1/4 -20的标准螺丝，且带有3/8的相机螺丝便于使用不同长度的摄影配件，附带的快装板与其他快装板兼容，并方便快速安装与释放相机和镜头。

快速锁紧装置：（如图8所示）

快速锁紧装置提供摄影设备双重保险。取下快装板，逆时针松开锁紧旋钮，快装板可在快装夹上滑动，进行平衡定位，快装板上的两颗可拆螺丝达到首要安全保险效果，逆时针松开旋钮，即可取出快装板，反之，即可锁紧快装板。

云台操作：（如图9所示）

逆时针松开大旋钮，云台可在垂直方向90度自由定位，位于云台底座的水平调节旋钮可进行360度水平调节。松开锁紧旋钮，可带阻尼调节云台。取下相机等摄影设备时，应握住摄影设备，再松开主体锁紧旋钮，顺时针调节阻尼旋钮增加阻尼，反之，则减少阻尼。最佳状态：在适当的承重范围、温度等条件下调节和使用云台。
