E. Spike (optional) Installation
Remove the rubber cap at the end of the leg by inserting a wooden stick or similar object
between the rubber cap and the aluminum ring at the end of the leg (see picture). By
pushing forward around the ring, the rubber cap can be removed, exposing a thread into
which the spike can be screwed and locked tightly into place with the included wrench.
Once the spike is in place, it does not need to be removed again, because the metal tip of
the spike can be receded into its rubber sleeve when desired (for use on scratch- sensitive
surfaces).
Please note that damage to your tripod’s Carbon Tubes or Aluminum parts can occur when
they dropped, squeezed, overloaded, or forced downward (eg. into sand dunes or
snowbanks). Please exercise care to avoid such conditions.
