Is this like a duplicate question of the one I just answered? I will pesume not.

If this is an emergency, take your equipment to the hardwre store. They should be able to sell you a nut/bolt/screw of the approximate proper size. If you can wait, visit your photo shop and have them order the parts you require.

I don't know, can you read the Velbon manual ..... ?

If there is one available, download it from the manufacturers web site.

Tripod heads have standard thread sizes, 1/4" or 3/8" so you will have to check size. You can get an adapter if its different. Same brand should be same thread so you should be ok to change. You just have to try it to see.

I presume this is a tripod, although you have not stated. On good quality tripods, the head attached to the centre column with a screw thread, either 1/4" or 3/8". Grasp the centre column firmly, and rotate the existing head anti-clockwise, first checking to ensure there are no grub screws restricting its movement. When you have removed it, attach the replacement.

Is a manual or instruction leaflet really necessary ? Tripods are actually amazingly simple to use. You spread the three legs (three legs - 'tri'-pod) and place them firmly on level ground. Then you attach the camera, camcorder, spotting scope or whatever to the top, and use the equipment as desired.

Try your local hardware store for a match, or your local camera shop

Try Ebay or your local friendly camera dealer

Unless you have added an adjustable head to this monopod (in which case you need the QR plate appropriate to that head), it appears to feature only a standard 1/4" thread screw, which has in and of itself no QR capabilities. Please pass this info to your friend Anonymous.

Sorry but we have no parts resources of any kind here other than a Google search,

If your camera has a 1/4" thread socket on the baseplate, it can be fitted to the pan and tilt head in the illustration of this tripod provided by a Google search. The manual should give you definitive information if you are still not sure.
