VORTEX HIGH COUNTRY TRIPOD
Congratulations on your purchase of the rugged,
compact Vortex High Country tripod.
1. Release the quick release plate by loosening the tension
lock knob (B) and sliding the quick release plate (C) forward until
it reaches the pin lock.
2. Push the pin lock (E) in and slide the quick release plate off the plate platform (D).
3. Thread the quick release plate onto the body of the spotting scope, binocular, or camera and tighten
the screw so the connection is secure.
4. Reattach the quick release plate by pushing the pin lock in and sliding the plate back on until it is
centered on the plate platform.
5. Secure the quick release plate in place by tightening the tension lock knob.
Using the ball head lever
The ball head lever controls all movement of the head. Release
the tension by turning the lever (F) counter-clockwise—this
allows you to move the head freely in all directions. Turn the
lever clockwise to increase the tension again.
Use the quick release (QR) plate to attach a spotting
scope, binocular, or camera to the High Country tripod.
