Product information
Contents: 2 tubes
Volume: 20 grams/tube
Tip:
If you get debris and dirt into Gitzo's G-lock/ARL type leg locks as well as the older types (where the tube sections rotated into each other when locking/unlocking the leg locks) you should be careful. Moisture that gets in when using the tripod in wet weather can also cause problems. The worst is if you get both salt water and fine-grained sand from, for example, the beach. Should this occur, it is best to take the stand in as quickly as possible and unscrew the leg locks. Try to remove all sand and salt, for example by rinsing the parts in fresh water. Let dry. Then apply the special grease to all threaded parts and reassemble the locks.
General tips that apply to all GitzosG-lock/ARL type leg locks:
You never need to use great force to lock these locks. They lock themselves harder and harder the more the stand is loaded, so only lock with the minimum force necessary.
