Product description

Thanks to the modular construction, the tripod base TrioPod-M can be optimally

equipped with diﬀerent legs and accessories for every application. Due to the

80mm diameter, the base is ideal for large ball heads such as the NOVOFLEX

CB5II, which has the same base diameter. Alternatively, the basic connection

piece (2) can be exchanged for the center column and enables quick and ﬂexible

adjustment. The height set in this way is ﬁxed using the lateral lever (7).

Congratulations on your purchase of the new modular NOVOFLEX TrioPod-M tripod. You‘ll

ﬁnd it very simple to use, and these tips will help you get familiar with it quickly and to enjoy all

the beneﬁts.

Adjust leg angle

The latching of the legs is unlocked by

pressing the blue unlocking buttons (3)

down and simultaneously pressing the

respective tripod leg inwards.

With the button pressed, you ﬁrst set a

relatively large angle (larger than want-

ed). After that, take your ﬁnger oﬀ the

button and swing your leg down. This

clicks audibly into diﬀerent positions.

Once the desired locking angle has been

found, move the leg back a little until it

stops.

Tripod legs

To change the legs, unscrew them clockwise

from the respective leg connector (4) or screw

them counterclockwise into the connector.

Handling

Adjust leg length

Hold the respective tripod leg with the right

hand in the upper area by the rubber, while

you operate the locking rings with the left

hand. This prevents the tripod leg from acci-

dentally disassembling from the base. Adjust

the length by pulling it out and close the lock-

ing rings again.

Tips:

When setting up the tripod, you

can also open all locking rings at

the same time by grasping all lock-

ing rings with your hand.

Each tripod leg has marking rings

in the upper area. This facilitates

the uniform length adjustment of

all legs.

• Open the side ﬁxing lever (7) and guide the ba-

sic connection piece (2) down out of the central

opening.

• Now take the center column by hand and ﬁrst

turn the upper support plate (9) counterclockwise

out of the center column. Use the threaded screw

to mount the ball head or tilt head. The screw

has a 1/4“ thread on one side and the larger 3/8”

thread on the other side. To change, remove the

screw and put it upside down into the hole of the

mounting plate.

• Now screw the unit threaded screw - mounting

plate into the tripod head from below.

• Now turn the unit mounting plate - tripod head as

far as possible into the center column.

• Insert the center column into the central opening

from above. Pay attention to the correct position

of the side milling of the column. Close the ﬁxing

lever (7) and then reassemble the spring-loaded

hook insert (8) at the lower end.

Tip:

For working close to the ground, the center column

can also be pushed “upside down” from below into the

central opening.

Tip:

To additionally secure the tripod head against twisting,

it can be ﬁxed from below using a grub screws (10).

Use a suitable Allen-key and turn the grub screw from

below up to the stop.

Disassembly is done in reverse order.

Tip:

Our complete range, de-

tails and technical data of

the respective tripod legs

can be found on our web-

site www.novoﬂex.com.

Tripod legs (available separately)

We oﬀer a large selection of diﬀerent tripod legs for the various TrioPod-M versions. In carbon

or aluminum, with 2, 3, 4 or 5 segments, short legs for macro shooting situations and much more.

All aluminum and carbon legs can also be used individually in combination with a special support

plate (QP-MONO) as a monopod.

Accessories (available separately)

For maximum stability, we recommend the NOVOFLEX

ClassicBall 5 II for mounting above the tripod base using

the basic connection piece (2).

The center column is ideal for small ball heads from the

ClassicBall, MagicBall or Ball series. The height can be

adjusted in seconds using the lateral ﬁxing lever (7). In this

case, the basic connection piece (2) can be screwed into

the side of an accessory connector (6) with 3/8“ internal

thread and used as a holder e.g. serve for a photo back-

pack (Fig. below).

The same function can be performed by two of our 20

cm long tripod legs Mini with rubber feet (QLEG A1010

Mini), which are screwed into the two accessory connec-

tors with guide holes (5). Alternatively, our 15cm long rods

(STA15) e.g. can be used as a holder for ﬂashes or reﬂec-

tors in macro photography.

With the help of the two side accessory connectors (6),

goosenecks and similar accessories can also be mounted

to use ﬂash units, clamps, etc. on the other ends. For this

there are two 3/8“ holes with one 1/4” adapters, which can

be unscrewed if necessary.

The picture on the left shows our gooseneck with ball head

and ﬂash shoe (MARM), for attaching and ﬂexibly aligning

microphones, lights, ﬂash units, etc.

Assembly

Tripod head on basic connection piece

Above the tripod base, each ball head or tilt head can be mounted with a 3/8“ threaded hole.

Note: Many of our NOVOFLEX tripod

heads have this 3/8“ threaded hole on the

bottom, in which a silver 1/4” adapter is in-

serted. If necessary, unscrew this adapter

before assembly.

• Open the side ﬁxing lever (7) and move the ba-

sic connection piece (2) from the bottom all the

way up to the stop. Close the ﬁxing lever in this

position.

• Place the tripod head in the middle of the unit

and tighten the threaded screw (1), that goes

through the basic connection piece, from below

using the supplied Allen-key.

• Check that the tripod head is secure.

• For disassembly, proceed in the reverse order.
