HELP: Stupid Queston on my Tripod Head!!

[jwbryson1]

I can't get my 484RC2 tripod head off my 190XPROB legs so I can install my new tripod head.

How do I take this thing off? I thought it just unscrewed from the legs but when I turn it the head just turns 360 degrees but does not loosen...

Help please...:hail:

Look up from the bottom. There's three screws that can be driven in from below. Maybe one of 'em got tightened up.

like sparky said, the 3 safety screws most likely the culprit, if not, make sure your friction adjustment is tightened up or it will just pan and not loosen up.

Thanks. I will take a look at that. Appreciate it. :mrgreen:

3 screws not in the way. I tighten the ballhead all the way and it just makes it harder to turn. It does not loosen the thread. Darn...

It's clearly broken and completely non-functional. You should immediately send it to me (postage-paid) for proper disposal.

I got it. Just screwed on tight (like my noggin...)
