Hi, a quick question for any users of this Monopod, i have just bought one second hand off another forum and the top section slips down with very little pressure put on it, do they all do this or is this one no good, i have tried to tighten the adjustment screw but it is solid and wont budge.

I am hoping for a quick reply because if its just this 1 then id like to send it back.

Thanks
Bassit.
 
Thanks for your help, i guessed not the bottom 2 sections are solid, looks like i'm sending it back then.
 
As above - mine doesn't slip

You say the adjustment screw won't budge - can you "undo" the adjustment screw and them try to tighten it ?

It didn't come with the adjustment tool, which i wasn't aware of (forgot about) until i did some searches on google, on the back of each clamp there is a small rubber grommet, once removed there is a 8mm nut underneath, i used a 8mm socket to tighten it up instead of the tightening tool, thanks for all your help..
