KESSLER KWIK RELEASE SYSTEM
The Kessler Kwik Release System is a unique, patent-pending mounting system
featuring solid billet aluminum and stainless steel construction. With a one hand
drop-in instant latching and push button drop-gate release, this mounting system
is strong, secure, fast and easy to use.
Plate Insertion and Locking
The Kwik release system is designed for easy installation of dove tail plates by dropping
and snapping them into place. This allows simple, blind installs that are rock solid.
1. If closed, release the locking lever on the Kwik release base.
2. The Kwik release base accepts any standard Arca-Swiss compatible plate. Once the
right side of the plate is tight against the base, it can be snapped in.
3. The Kwik release base is spring loaded so as you push a plate into
it, it will retract until the plate fully engaged. Note: When using the Kessler plates, they
will not slide out at this point due to specially designed locking pins.
4. Once the red bar on the Kwik release has snapped tight, close the rear locking lever
to secure the plate firmly.
Plate Rtelease
1. To release a plate from the Kwik release, open the rear lever all the way to the right.
2. Press the back of the red lock bar in. It will slide forward and down releasing the plate
for easy removal.
