Very easy to push over flat surface. Not recommended for uneven surface such as tile floor, uneven blacktop or cracks. Well built, very easy to insert and lock in tripod legs. I'm very happy with this Dolly system and highly recommended.

question

Hi there,Does anyone know if it works with this guy: TT 75/2 CF with FSB 6 Fluid Head?Thanks a lotJulien
Asked by: Julien D.
When matching a tripod to a dolly particular care must be taken regarding the interface of the tripod feet and the receptacle on the dolly. In this case, the tripod feet are shaped as hemisphere's. Unfortunately,the Manfrotto 181B cannot accept a hemisphere for it is designed to accept a U shaped dual point foot. We would suggest the following dolly: VariZoom VZ-D50 Light Duty Dolly for Small Jibs B&H # VAVZD50

Hi there. I was wondering ion this dolly compatible with the Ifootage Wild Bull T7 Tripod ?
Asked by: Pavel
The operational footprint of the Manfrotto 181B Folding Auto Dolly (Black) is 50 in/127 cm, and its weight capacity is 55 lb/25 kg, which is considerably lower than that of the iFootage Wild Bull T Series T7 Carbon Fiber Tripod, as it can handle 88 lb. If the iFootage Wild Bull T Series T7 Carbon Fiber Tripod's footprint can adapt to the Manfrotto 181B Folding Auto Dolly (Black) and if you are careful in keeping the load capacity in check, then there should be no issues.
