The ball head is well made and easy to use, but I don't think I will be able to follow the recommended maintenance regime...

Funny, English as a 3rd language.
I had to download the image to see the text larger. That is a really awkward translation. Sometimes, they've run two words together and needed to put a space in between them.
Much better than my Chinese translation.

Whatever you do, DO NOT Scrud the Spinit. Might give you a lot of problems. LOL

The instruction cover page states that the bullhead is “professional.” The actual instructions were an after thought.

No need to follow any maintenance schedule. Its made from Chinese depleted uranium metal rods. Tough as diamonds. It laughs at sand and oil. :)
I've often thought that one could have a business setting straight the hard-to-read directions from foreign manufacturers. Poor English implies a shoddy product.

I'm not sure that it implies a shoddy product so much as one with a low volume where multi-lingual translations are just too expensive for the manufacturer.
It is a good idea to take out your tripod /monopod and manulipate (study the screwing, etc.) the various ways to set it up, otherwise they will stay where you keep them. I know that I have neglected doing this and to set them up again makes them easier to use….
Two thoughts:
1. This guys is as dumb as mine.
2. The company's name is really "Newer" and whoever typed this accidentally created the Neewer name.

My nephew taught English in China for many years. He said there were two problems that made it frustrating.
1. The educational system teaches students to be passive. The model is that the students are receptacles for the wisdom imparted by the teacher. Only you can't learn a language without participation.
2. Most of his students didn't really want to learn English. What they wanted was a sticker on their diploma that said they'd taken English classes, because that would get them higher paying jobs.
And that's how you get interesting interpretations of the language in Exhibit Neewer.

So, interpreted, "Put it where the sun don't shine." ??
