Quick Release Mount Base

How to Remove the Ball Head and Replace It with a Quick-Release Mount

If you need to remove the ball head and the damping base, please follow the steps below:

Removing the Ball Head:

• The ball head and the damping base are pre-installed and secured with thread-locking glue, making them very tight.
• If you try to unscrew it by hand or with a regular wrench, it may not come off easily.
• The thread glue needs to be heated to soften before removal.

Steps:

1. First, remove the ball head bracket from the base.
2. Wrap a dry towel around the ball head or wear heat-resistant gloves to hold it.
3. Use a heat gun or lighter to heat the screw that connects the ball head to the damping base.
4. After heating for a while, use a hex wrench to unscrew the bolt.

Installing the Quick-Release Mount:

Once you've separated the ball head and damping base:

1. Loosen the screws on the quick-release mount.
2. Attach the thinner part of the quick-release unit to the base using screws.
3. Attach the thicker part to the ball head and bracket body.
4. After assembly, align both parts of the quick-release mount on the same plane and slide them together horizontally to complete the installation.

To remove the quick-release mount:

• Press and hold the red button, then slide the two parts apart in the opposite direction along the same plane.
