duncan Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Hi wonderful people.I have a Manfrotto MVH502AH head which has become stuck to my Glidetrack Video Tripod. Nothing I do will seperate them, any ideas?I've used a heavy mallet and tap tap tap TAP!!!! But I'll end up damaging it.Also, the Glidetrack tripod is terrible, dont buy it!

Cinegain Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Maybe temperature shock it into loosening up if you can? But in general: just keep trying, it will probably give in at some point. G'd luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncan Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 Thanks, after spending all morning trying I gave up and went to the father-in-law's and used his metal vice. Now removed and cleaned. Bloody thing.Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tupp Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 You probably also could have used a strap wrench, which has less of a tendency than a vise to scratch your tripod head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
