Step 12
Mount your own tripod plate to the bottom plate by aligning the 1/4-20 and/or 3/8-16 screws and fastening them to the Bottom Plate. It is recommended
that you connect your tripod plate to front of the Bottom Plate so that you can balance your teleprompter easier. Once your tripod plate is connected to the
Bottom Plate, mount the tripod plate to your tripod head.
Step 13
Slide the entire teleprompter system into the Bottom Plate. Once the
teleprompter system is inserted, you can balance it by sliding it along the
Bottom Plate until the center of gravity is determined.
Step 14
Once the center of gravity has been determined, tighten the thumb screws
to keep the base from sliding.
