Hello,
sometimes I have trouble getting my Wimberley Head II off from my tripod (Gitzo 3540LS).
The head turns but the round thing that is attached to the tripod doesn't move (even when all knobs are tightened).
I have to use the hexagon socket screw key (hope this is the right English word) that comes with the Wimberley to put it into the little hole at the bottom and use that to increase the leverage to remove the Wimberlhey Head from the tripod.
That doesn't happen all the time but sometimes and normally when I am in the field, need to change the tripod head and forgot the above mentioned key :-)
Has anybody else ever had the same problem?
Markus
