What You Need to Know Before You Start
The BRAUN Schnellwechselplatte für BLT 100 is a direct replacement plate designed specifically for the BRAUN Lightweight BLT 100 Stativ. It includes a built-in bubble level for accurate horizontal alignment. Before mounting, confirm your tripod is a BRAUN BLT 100 model, as the plate is compatible only with the original BLT 100 quick-release system.
No tools beyond your hands are needed for installation, but working on a clean, flat surface helps prevent the plate from tipping while you attach it.
Mounting the Quick Release Plate
- Remove the Existing Plate (if applicable): If your BLT 100 tripod already has a quick-release plate attached, slide it off the mounting platform. The plate releases by pressing the release button and sliding it forward off the tripod head.
- Align the Replacement Plate: Take the BRAUN Schnellwechselplatte für BLT 100 and align it with the mounting slot on the tripod head. The plate's design matches the BLT 100's quick-release system, so it should slide on smoothly without force.
- Slide and Lock the Plate: Slide the plate onto the tripod head until you hear or feel it click into place. The release button should pop out, indicating the plate is securely locked. Gently tug the plate to confirm it is attached.
- Level the Camera Using the Bubble Level: With the plate mounted, place your camera on the plate's screw (not included – use your camera's standard tripod mount). Look at the integrated bubble level on the plate. Adjust the tripod legs until the bubble is centered, ensuring your camera is horizontally level.
What to Check After Mounting
After the plate is locked and your camera is mounted, verify that the release button moves freely and that the plate does not wobble. The bubble level should be visible and unobstructed by the camera base. If the plate feels loose, remove it and re-engage the locking mechanism.
Remember that the plate is designed only for the BRAUN BLT 100 tripod. Using it on other tripods may result in an insecure fit or damage to the plate or camera.
