Questions & Answers

Shopper : Hello my tripod is amvona model AT-9901AT, please advice if this piece work with it.? thanks best regards naderMICHAEL C : This should work with any tripod with a 75mm bowl. I don't know if Amvona's even in business anymore, just take a look at your tripod.
Shopper : how do you install this? There were no instructions included!CHRISTIAN ULISE P : The Manfrotto 520BALL Adapter is a half-ball for leveling fluid heads on video tripods provided with 75mm bowl. The 520BALLSH comes complete with a short locking handle to mount all Manfrotto flat-base heads to the 529B Hi-Hat (with optional 319 adapter).MICHAEL C : The stud on top of the flat part screws into your tripod head; there are three set screws you tighten to keep it from spinning. Then you unscrew the plastic tube underneath, revealing a long threaded stud. Set the rounded part of the base in your (75mm) ball receiver (the well in the top of your tripod - make sure there's no grit or dust in it). Screw the plastic "tube" back on (from underneath), which compresses the ball into your tripod. To level your head, loosen the tube, level the head, and re-tighten. My guess is that if it didn't make sense when you opened the box, you have the wrong item for your legs. These are made to sit in the "bowl" at the top of your legs; if there's not a bowl on your tripod legs, you don't need this.
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?JUSTIN O : To attach slider to tripodJohn T : To aalow me to install the 229 super pro head onto the 100mm bowl head of the 3 section twin leg CF Manfrotto tripodBRIAN B : Needed for use with Hi-Hat tripod baseANDREW C : Adjust horixon on-the-fly for video / filmNaveen M : Need it to use flat base video head with bowl tripod.CLIFFORD A : Works with new Manfrotto Tripod and head

A little short, but does the trick

I wish it were a bit longer but it was packaged in a nice kit with N8 video head and flowtech legs. I love the entire kit.

Excellent!!!

This about my 10th Bogen/Manfrotto tripod, and every one seems to have useful improvements over the last. This makes leveling the tripod a snap. Couldn't do without it...ever!
