Question about Bogen Communication Bogen Manfrotto 3047 Delux 3-Way Pan Head Tripod
Hello,
I bought a Manfrotto 3047 Head on eBay and the seller does not have the instruction manual. I managed to remove the quick release plate, attach it to my camera and now I am trying to reattach the plate back on the head, but it is wobbling. How does the 2-piece attachment mechanism work?
Thank you.

I'm not sure I understand your question. The quick release plate (Hex plate) should be firmly captured by the head when properly brought into the clamping mechanism. There is a small "button" that the plate depresses which releases the clamp. For reference, this linkhttp://www.bhphotovideo.com/images/large... shows an image of the head with the plate in the correct position.
I use Manfrotto ball heads, but with the same QR plate and mechanism so I'm pretty familiar with the setup. If I misunderstood your question, please let me know. If what I've said above solves your problem I'd like to know that too.
