Operation
Mounting the Ace Base Plate
To mount the Ace Base Plate onto the head, a slide plate is required. The slide plate can be fitted
with the screws and pin supplied, depending on the camera attachment.
To mount the Ace Base Plate onto the head (see Fig. 2):
Ensure that the head platform is level and apply both the pan and tilt brakes [A].
Loosen the slide plate clamping screw. Pull the Ace slide plate to the rear of the fluid
head whilst pressing the red release button [B].
Attach the Ace slide plate to the Ace Base Plate using the camera screws and pin
supplied. Spare camera screws can be stored under the platform [C].
Lower the Ace Base Plate onto the rear of the head and slide the plate into the track in
the platform, ensuring the slide lock release button snaps into position [D].
Steady the Ace Base Plate and tighten the slide plate clamp in a clockwise direction to
secure the Ace Base Plate in position [D].
