Stability

WARNING!
When mounting the head on a tripod, it is possible to set
the tripod legs so that the center of gravity of the tilted
payload falls outside the footprint of the tripod, leading to
instability.
Use the mid-level or floor spreader to ensure that the tripod legs are spread
sufficiently so that the center of gravity of the tilted payload remains within the
footprint of the tripod.
