I purchased a Manfrotto 501HDV Fluid Head with the 546B Tripod as a kit about 2 years ago. Late last year the 501HDV head started to skip whenever I initally started to pan, either left or right. Since I have never separated the head from the tripod I just assumed that if the knob adjustments didn't fix it, then I probably had to live with it - and that's what I did for about 6 months. Today, however, I decided to take the head off the tripod and found three flat-head screws that, once tightened, corrected the problem. Now I have a tripod that is as smooth as it was the day I bought it. Follow the simple steps after the jump.
