When using the Miliboo tripod, you may encounter situations where you need to disassemble the ball head bowl. Whether it's for cleaning, maintenance, or replacing the ball head bowl, understanding how to properly disassemble it is crucial. This article will provide you with a simple guide to help you easily complete the process.


Preparation Tools

Before starting, please ensure you have the following tools prepared:

  • Allen Wrench: Most Miliboo ball head bowls use Allen screws for fixation. Make sure you have an Allen wrench of the appropriate size.
  • Screwdriver: If your ball head uses additional fixation devices, you may need a flathead or Phillips screwdriver.



Disassembly Steps

  1. Locate the Screws

    First, find the fixation screws at the bottom of the ball head bowl. These screws are usually Allen screws, located at the bottom or side of the ball head bowl.

  2. Remove the Screws

    Use the appropriately sized Allen wrench to gently loosen and remove the fixation screws. If there are protective caps on the screw heads, you may need to remove them first.

  3. Separate the Ball Head Bowl

    After the screws are completely removed, gently lift the ball head bowl upward until it separates from the main body of the ball head. Please note that the action should be gentle to avoid damaging the ball head or bowl due to excessive force.

  4. Clean and Inspect

    After disassembly, carefully inspect the contact surfaces between the ball head bowl and the ball head for any wear or damage. If any issues are found, promptly replace the damaged components. Clean the contact surfaces and apply an appropriate amount of lubricant if necessary to ensure smooth operation of the ball head.



Reinstallation

If you need to reinstall the ball head bowl, simply follow the opposite order of operations:

  1. Align the Ball Head Bowl

    Align the ball head bowl with the ball head, ensuring that the screw holes at the bottom of the ball head bowl align with the screw holes on the ball head.

  2. Fix the Screws

    Use the Allen wrench to tighten the screws, ensuring that the ball head bowl is securely fixed to the ball head.



Precautions

  • Avoid using excessive force during the disassembly and installation process to prevent damage to the ball head or bowl.
  • If you encounter difficulties, you can refer to the Miliboo user manual or contact our customer support for assistance.
  • Regularly inspect and maintain your Miliboo tripod and ball head to ensure its long-term stable operation.

By following these simple steps, you can easily disassemble and reinstall the ball head bowl of the Miliboo ball head. Keep your photography equipment in optimal condition and enjoy the fun of shooting!
