5) USE THE PAN LOCK PROPERLY
The Pan Lock Knob should either by tightened to lock the panning motion of the
ball head, or fully loosened to allow free panning movement. Bear in mind this knob
cannot control tension. The panning movement uses a fixed drag only. Do not
attempt to control panning tension with this knob or the internal mechanism may
become damaged when you attempt to rotate the head.

1) Never attempt to mount a camera and a phone at the same time. Doing so may
cause the camera to become disconnected from the Chronicle and fall. The QR
plate should always be removed from the ball head before attempting to convert
the tripod to phone mode.
2) The Chronicle is not water resistant. Do not submerge it or expose it to heavy rain
or snow. If the tripod does get very wet, you may need to disassemble the legs to
dry and clean them. Contact customer support at ProMaster for instructions about
how to do this properly.
3) Never expose the Chronicle to salt water.
4) Don't rub it in. When other photographers see you using the Chronicle and
appear jealous, please direct them to www.promaster.com or a friendly
neighborhood ProMaster retailer so they can enjoy a similar experience.
5) Periodically check to ensure various parts of the Chronicle are tight or adjusted
properly, such as the grub screws, the control handle, the bolts located at the leg
angle joints, and the feet.
6) Don't touch the metal parts of the tripod with bare skin in cold temperatures.
Wear gloves. A great set of photo gloves can be especially helpful in cold weather.
