Unscrew Ballhead

[ahandre]

Help, it's urgent since I'll be leaving this morning.

How to unscrew the ballhead from the tripod's leg. I already remove the locking screw (three of em) but still unable to unscrew the ballhead.

Manfrotto head : 486RC2

Leg : Manfrotto Italy 2006 limited edition..190PROB


Please inform how to detach em.

TIA

Yes, you have to twist the ball head out as it is attached by a screw similar to that on the quick release plate.

Hope it worked.

Hi All, I managed to unscrew with Foto Thailand's staff help, damn i did not realize that you need big "force" to rotate it CCW.

Anyway, thanks all for the tip.
