CM106K Tripod

2.3 Mast

Slide the mast into the tripod base orienting the end with the hole upwards,
making sure that it extends below the lower bolts and rests on the tripod body
tabs. Tighten the six 5/16-18 x 2.25” bolts to secure the mast.

Plumb the tripod by adjusting the northeast and south facing legs (use the
downhill leg and one of the uphill legs when the tripod is installed on a slope).
With a level on the East side of the mast, adjust the Northeast leg for plumb.
With the level on the South side of the mast, adjust the South leg for plumb.
Tighten the 5/16 bolt on each clamp bracket after the adjustments have been
made.
