Thank you! Very helpful. (A few caveats from my experience. 3mm hex wrench instead of 1.5mm. And I turned the 14mm spanner more than half to get enough tension.) Serious props!

Thank you for the video! Please, could you tell me which kind of grease are using? thank you in advance for your reply.

Perfect, thank you so much!

Thank you this absolutely saved me tonight!!!!! ❤

The thing that upsets me the most with this product, NOT your video, is the WEAK steel that Manfrotto uses for the spring loaded handle/toggle switch to remove the plate. I've already broken two of them, and they take FOREVER to replace. Fortunately, I have a friend who is making me two new pieces with either stronger steel or brass, so that toggle switch will NEVER break again. Awesome tripod, I have two of them, but that darned toggle switch is a piece of junk.

Now do one for the 808 head cause I’m about to throw mine out the window haha 😂

I don't mean to be an ass, but I wouldn't call that a gear myself but a threaded rod instead. A threaded rod that engages a gear.

Can you fit 4 x Avenger 40" C-Stand Kits (with arms and grip heads) in this case?

Thank you so much! Very helpful!

Fair Dinkum.. you guys are the best.. I've always used manfrotto tripods and occasionally something will go wrong like the above or a broken clasp.. and you guys are always there to lend a hand.. fantastic!

Thank you I fixed mine in 10 minutes.

Still saving lives with this! Thank you!

Lifesaver, thanks!

thank you so much for this video

well. I probably should have done some research on the design of the tripod to know how much was going into it. I have had a similar problem where the horizontal gear would only turn to the left and not the right, and I think I have pushed the gear too hard and left it in the back of the car with the tripod head still on. Knowing the insides of it was very helpful to taking care of the product in the end. thanks for the video. And man. I hate when products try to make them flashy by covering up the bolts with the important stickers. This comes back to the right to repair argument where we can't repair it or resell it without it having defects anymore because in order to repair, we have to mess up the stickers

Thank you! You were clear and I was able to repair my tripod. Great!

Hi, would like to find out..How do you remove the column stopper at the bottom? I've the spare parts from a spoilt Manfrotto 058 tripod, trying to figure out how to extract and place unto my used Manfrotto 058 tripod. If you could make a video on it would be great. Thanks in advise

If you're replacing only one of the knobs do you have to take the whole gear assembly apart or can you just pop the spring under the base of the knob? I wish you were in the USA, I would send it to you. Great video!

Thanks for the video, It's tighter now but it doesn't spring closed anymore when you put the plate on. The button is activated but you have to manually close it. Any ideas?

"There's nothing else quite like it". A very fitting closing statement. I looked for months for any type of competitor who supplied something like this and it seems this is the only option out there on the market. It is quite expensive ($450AUD) but the quality is A1 and if treated correctly, I would see this lasting a lifetime.

Thanks very much, I've had this happen to THREE tripod heads now, and I just ended up paying so much to get the previous two fixed with constantly having this happen again. This tripod head is great to use, but absolutely rubbish with lasting. Now that I can fix it appropriately I won't need to be coughing up so much money all the time.

hah, who would have guessed it's not ideal for the tripod head to be bouncing around in the trunk like a rabbit on speed 🙄 No wonder mine never seem to last more than a few weeks before they misalign

Thanks for this. It will be very helpful when the 410.03 part arrives. I dropped my 410 head today(!), pan knob was completely locked after the impact. Oy!

Great help thank you.

Always clean off the old grease (and apply some more) before reassembly.

Awesome! Information shared! Thank you 😊

Was about to buy another brand to replace this head. Watched both these videos now i feel like i have a brand new 410!!

Glad i stumbled on this video,was about to buy a Benro head to replace this!

To help prevent screw from eventually backing out and looseness use Loctite 222 Purple low strength on the threads after cleaning the threads with acetone. Use sparingly. It will cure once tightened anaerobically (in the absence of Oxygen). Use only this 222 as you will be able to service this again and again if needed.

Great video, but it’s strange that in the metric ball hex key set that I have, the key that works says 3, not 1.5. And, by the way, I highly recommend a ball hex key if you can get one. I find that it’s much easier.

My 410 head must be getting on for nearly 20 years old and I think the grease may have dried out. Does this happen and is it worth stripping it down, cleaning off the old grease and regressing. Thanks great video BTW.

lesson: don't leave your tripod in the car where it can swing around and get banged. Mine knob became tight because it probably hit the door of my car. I ended up using a hammer to make it unstuck. Now it turns normally

Absolutely bonkers I found this video. Thank you so much . You just saved my ass with this video. I hate Manfrotto a little bit less now !

Thanks Sam, I used this video again today. A life saver.

Thanks, so helpful.

Had to comment now this is literally the third time this video has saved me. Concise right to the point and spot on just works thanks man 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

thanks heaps.. Helped me once again!

was there a video for repairing the spring itself

I love their stuff, but the springs they use are their Achilles heel. That and plastic parts that hold all the tension from a spring and can unexpectedly fail. I finally replaced my XPRO that doesn't hold the camera steady because the plate wobbles because the spring holding the quick release lever is not robust enough and weakens with use with a 410. Sucks that I have to get a whole set of plates again and that plate is ridiculous on a small camera the XPRO plate is fine with compact cameras.

Thank you. Mine loosened on me while on a shoot and freaked me out :D

Yep, very helpful video. Thanks for doing this. Such a simple fix, but not necessarily intutive and a little intimdating if you don't know where to dig in. This video is specific and well done.

thank you mate! you're a legend!

This worked great.

The reason the leg on the torsion spring broke in the first place is it was probably NOT properly heat treated. Bending the leg will NOT last. The spring has been heat treated and bending will overstress the metal and cause a breakage. Get a new one!

Had that problem too, but fixed it before I saw this video. Good to see i did it correctly. Probably would not have been an issue if Manfrotto has used threadlock!

Great info! My 410 was shipped attached to a 475b tripod in a triangular FedEx box and the top 410 knob had broke through the cardboard and was sticking out; it got bent. Just got a used 410, and it has some problems with two of the worms; can tell it is worn. Took it apart and the brass worm was fine. It was the ring gears that were all worm; made cheaply of aluminum. Used a heat gun to remove the stickers. UPDATE: Flipped all ring gears around 180 degrees, re-greased, and works like new! I wonder how many people don't know that can be done! Actually, can be done FOUR times since only 1/4 of the ring gear is used on the x and x axis which get the most wear. one question I have for Manfrotto is why using a 5/32 allen wrench SAE screw and not all metric! Unless it actually uses a 4mm Allen wrench. UPDATE: I said it works like new after re-positioning the ring gears, but it doesn't. When rotating the knob it went from tight to not-so-tight. Indicating the worm shaft was bent; both the upper worms were bent. The upper knobs should rotate just as smoothly as the bottom pan knob (which gets the least amount of strain). Ordered two new worms from Manfrotto Spares in the UK. Installing the worms was a problem. The worm shaft has 3/4 inch of worm at one end and M8x1.25 thread at the other for the knob. The way they lock the knob to the worm is by driving the set screw INTO THE THREADS of the knob's thread; bad bad bad! This causes damage to the threads which makes removing the knobs difficult. Had to clamp the knob in a wood vise and use a giant tipped screwdriver to unscrew using the slot at the end of the worm shaft. After separating, had to clean the threads of the knob before screwing it onto the new worm shaft. The knob should easily screw onto the worm shaft. Note the knob should be VERY tight against the worm end. A bit loose will translate to backlash/play in the movement. After snugging it up, snug up the set screw. After all that, it works good as new. Long of the short of it; a knob that does not rotate smoothly 360 degrees is probably bent. Replacing it will require a giant flat tip screwdriver and an M8x1.25 tap to clean up the threads in the knob which get partly damaged when unscrewing the worm. Works good as new now! One comment. The way that Manfrotto locks the knob to the worm shaft is a VERY poor design when it comes to replacing the worm.

Brilliant! My spring had broken off on the bottom. Bent it with pliers and like Dennis said, Bob's your uncle. Thank you so much for posting this.

You just save my life. Thanks, many many thanks!!!!

Weird. The metric key that fit mine is a 3 millimeter.

Excellent ! thanks guys
