Kessler MOUNTING & GRIP: Mounting Plate & Cheese Plate (iOS) - Manual

Kessler Multi-Angle Mounting PlAte guide
The Kessler Multi-Angle Mounting Plate is designed to work in conjunction
with the Kessler Low Profile Ball Head. The mounting plate can be attached
in a 45° or 90° configuration and, coupled with the range of movement
of the Low Profile Ball Head, will allow for configuring you camera at just
about any angle you desire. The ability to mount to the Low Profile Ball
Head in a 90° configuration is ideal for doing vertical slider moves. With the
optional Multi-Angle Cheese Plate, you can also attach various accessories
and mounts; even another Multi-Angle Mount.
45° And 90° ConfigurAtions
1. The Multi-Angle plate comes in two
(2) pieces with two (2) thumb screws.
It can be assembled in a 45 degree
or 90 degre configuration.
2. For a 45 degree configuration, mount
the camera plate to the 45 degree
side of the base plate.
3. Use the 45 degree angle when
shooting with a slider in an angled
position. This will allow you to
compensate for the angle and keep
the camera level.
4. For a 90 degree configuration, mount
the camera plate to the 90 degree
face opposite to the 45 degree face
on the base plate.
5. The 90 degree position is used when
shooting with a slider in totally verti-
cal mode or when you need to switch
from landscape to portrait orienta-
tion.
NOTE: We highly recommend the Kes-
sler Low Profile Ball Head as it purpose
designed to support the Multi-Angle
Plate while allowing for quick adjust-
ments. Technically the plate can be
mounted to any 3/8” stud if you have
special requirements.
