OPERATION

Attach the BH-40 to Tripod

1. Tighten the Pan Lock Knob to lock the Panning Base with

light to medium torque.

NOTE: Overcranking the Pan Lock Knob may result in

unwanted drag on the ball.

2. Screw the ballhead onto the 3/8”-16 threaded stud on the top

of the tripod (stud should not protrude more than 3/8” above

platform or 5-6 threads). Tighten the ballhead onto the tripod

snugly, but do not over-torque or it will be difficult to remove.

Set Up Your Tripod

Set up your tripod to match the required camera position.

Orient the Ballhead

Loosen the Pan Lock Knob and rotate the body of the BH-40

ballhead as shown, so you may operate the Main Lock T-Lever with

your le hand while your right hand is free to operate the camera

controls. This orientation allows you to easily tilt the camera body

over from horizontal to vertical using the drop notch.

As you adopt a procedure that works for you, it’s best to practice that

working mode consistently until it becomes second nature. This will save

you time in the field and help avoid costly mistakes. Seasoned pros are

able to setup and shoot literally within seconds.

Adjust the Drag Set

Some photographers prefer to have tension (drag) on the ball

at all times to prevent the camera from suddenly flopping

when the Main Lock T-Lever is loosened. The optimal amount

of drag depends on the size and shape of equipment being

used as well as the angles at which you wish to place the

equipment (steeper angles require a higher drag setting).

To set the drag, either remove your camera or hold it in place.

1. Loosen the Main Lock T-Lever and Drag Set Knob by rotating

them in the direction of the Arrow (counterclockwise).opposite

2. Tighten the Main Lock T-Lever to your preferred amount

of resistance by turning in the same direction of the

Arrow and Lock symbol (clockwise).

3. Turn the Drag Set Knob in the direction of the Arrow

until it stops, then loosen the Main Lock T-Lever.

Your Drag is now set and will remain at the same resistance

until the Drag Set Knob is adjusted again.

Note: It is easy to forget that you set the drag and then

try to loosen the Main Lock T-Lever with no apparent

affect on the operation of the ball. If this happens to

you, please check the drag setting first and do not

over-loosen the Main Lock T-Lever.

**Visit our website to see a ballhead video tutorial.

Tighten the Main Lock Knob and expose image.

We recommend that you tighten the Main Lock T-Lever before

exposing an image. However, some photographers rely on

the Drag Setting and do not fully lock the Ball using the Main

Lock T-Lever. This is fine for many situations depending on

your equipment and how high the drag setting is. Conversely,

many photographers leave the drag setting loose and only

use the Main Lock T-Lever to control both drag and lock.

Experiment and see what works best for you. Note that the

Ball should be fully locked using the Main Lock T-Lever any

time you take your hand off your camera/lens.

Using the Drop Notch

1. Loosen the Pan Lock Knob and rotate the body so the drop

notch is facing forward.

2. Fully seat camera into the drop notch.

MAINTENANCE

General Care

The BH-40 is finished with a protective anodize plating that protects the

aluminum from corrosion and mild abrasion. It will not protect it from

scraping against or dropping on rocks/concrete/etc.

The BH-40 comes packed in our protective LB-40 pouch. Keep the BH-40

in this pouch whenever practical. When transporting your tripod, cover

ballhead with the pouch and tighten the drawstring around the bottom to

keep it in place.

Cleaning

Take precautions to prevent your BH-40 from getting fouled in mud, dirt, or

sand. A good habit is to keep a plastic bag with your camera gear to quickly

cover your camera and ballhead if you get caught in a rain/sandstorm. If the

BH-40 is fouled, dry dust and dirt can be blown and/or wiped off with a soft

cloth. Mud or salt water should be lightly rinsed off with fresh water and then

thoroughly dried. Do NOT submerge the ballhead when washing and do not

direct a high-pressure stream of water at the ballhead.

All the knobs are captive, meaning they cannot come off without damaging

them so do not attempt to remove the knobs. If fine sand/grit fouls the knob,

simply run a gentle stream of water around the knob while rotating it one-half

turn back and forth.

Break-In

The ballhead is tuned to maximize holding capacity and deliver super-fast

lockup. If you like to work with a fully loose ball with no pre-set tension, the

ballhead is ideal for you “out of the box”. However, those who like to operate the

ballhead with a given amount of drag may find that articulating a pre-tensioned

ballhead is not as silky smooth as desired. Keep in mind, after using the head for

a period of time there will be some noticeable softening of the action. Customers

have been known to lubricate their ballhead for increased fluidity of motion,

however we do not recommend this.

Lubrication

The BH-40 is lubricated at the factory and parts that require lubrication are

sealed. NO LUBRICATION IS REQUIRED BY THE USER. Especially DO NOT

LUBRICATE THE BALL as this will decrease the lock-up capacity and tend

to attract dirt/dust. Just keep the ball free from contamination to maintain

smooth action.

KEY FEATURES

1. Pan Lock Knob — Our exclusive drum and band panning brake locks

with an ergonomic scalloped knob. Its shape allows you to easily apply

enough force to unscrew the ballhead by hand without the panning

base slipping.

2. 40mm Ball — The 40mm ball is hollow for reduced weight, and its

shape and finish allow for smooth and precise movement.

3. Quick-Release Clamps — Really Right Stuff quick-release clamps

feature the option of screw-knob or lever-release styles. We offer many

sizes, from mini clamps to extra long clamps. Though any of our quick-

release clamps can be installed onto the ballhead, the B2-40 LR and

B2-Pro II clamps are the best choices.

4. Main Lock T-Lever — Our ergonomic T-lever is designed for easy

locking of the ball. It is springloaded so it can be pulled out and

repositioned.

5. Drop Notch — Single drop notch for tilting the camera into vertical

aspect or at steep downward or upward angles.

6. Body — The CNC machined body serves as both the structure and

the clamping mechanism of the ballhead. This is furnished by a

unique split body design, which is robust, lightweight and sealed to

prevent dust contamination. Finished with satin black anodizing, it can

withstand abrasion and corrosion while looking beautiful.

7. Engraved Pan Base — The pan base is laser engraved in 2.5º

increments from ±0º-90º-0º. Located on the main body just below the

drop notch is an index mark for tracking progressive panning, used in

multi-shot panoramic photography.

8. Drag Set Knob — Use this knob to add tension on the ball and

prevent the camera from dropping when the Main Lock T-Lever is

loosened. Control is independent from the Main Lock Knob to ensure

logical operation and absolute reliability in the field.
