Now to the "concerns" with this part. The above problem with the clutch plate is annoying in the long run. The small spring I've been looking for two times. The spring is lost quickly when loosening the lever. Before any outdoor application I checked the head. Not pretty but oh well, so I could live.
The main reason for returning is the easing of a leg of the tripod. Unfortunately, you can not follow the well. the screws are all tight. If you are much in motion with the tripod and constantly knocking down one leg, the tripod is useless.
