is it supposed to attach to your monopod, or just sit loosely on top?

I am not quite sure what you mean by fit loosely on top. It should screw on securely and tight. You need to be sure the thread on the head and monopod is the same.

The attachment is secure. The piece you see on top screws into the bottom of your camera. I'm very happy with this purchase. I recommend it.

It attaches to the monopod. And then the camera and possibly the lens attaches to that.

It attaches on to the monopod. There is a threaded post on the top of the monopod, and the head screws onto that post.

I just got mine out and set up the whole frame and had no problem with the tripod legs staying in place once I spread them out as far as they go and tightened the screw. Perhaps you got bad screws or the wrong screws on yours and you need to call the company.

Always stay in the place you want, just tighten the handle to that end, which is not the same to adjust the lower clamping screw, set on a tripod or on a slider is made by screwing directly

You can balance the tripod first then attach the mount. This is truly my favorite tripod for it's size and strength.

I agree with all of the previous answers. I use mine on a monopod with good results.

You're not doing anything wrong. The ball head receptical is 3/8", but your monopod is most likely the standard 1/4". I don't get it myself. However, you just need a cheap adapter: uxcell 1/4" to 3/8" Camera Convert Screw Adapter for Tripod Monopod That's what did it for me.

It doesn't start to screw in or it doesn't screw in all the way? I've found you can screw it in until it is tight and THEN lock it in place with the nut on top. This means you should always get full contact with the tripod threads. Many things only screw part way into the mount before they get tight against the plate but that seems less secure than the way this works.

Hello Lynn~ First attach the tripod mount to your GoPro with the Screw. Then you can easily tighten screws with the 2.1" Plastic Long Screw Bolt. When steps one and two are done, you can just fix your GoPro to the Handheld Monopod . Please let us know if you need detailed instructions. We also found a video with step by step instructions as well.

I mounted it on a mono pod and it is fine - what I was looking for was a really secure way of mounting my costly camera. I use Arca Swiss type plates hence this mount worked fine

Excellent question, that I just bumped into. YES, it fits like a glove, although a somewhat heavy glove on top of this monopod. I am going to look for something less functional and much lighter that just makes a simple conversion to a smaller thread.

I elected to put an Arca-Swiss compatible clamp atop the mono-pod to make it easier to quickly change camera bodies and lenses. You might want to put a ballhead or other device, but it will work directly with the tripod mount on the bottom of your camera

You have been mistaken with the swivel/pan. All this is for is a quick disconnect for your tripod or monopod. The bottom has a 1/4 by 20 receptacle which is the same as the top screw on the disconnect block.

Sure, using it with the legs retracted will make it more like a normal monopod foot. I'm not sure how low you need to go with it, they get about knee-height with a camera on top.

I think they sell an overpriced way to attach it. I just have a little nylon case that fits it. I just hang it from my tripod.

If the clip that comes with the mono pod does not hold your phone.You can unscrew it and screw on a clip at the very top that does it's simply a tripod mount that screws on the top of the mono pod

It attaches directly to the tripod mount. No additional item is necessary. It fits on a standard tripod.

It depends on the type of head you purchase. Most people would buy the less expensive simple head which does not tilt for veritical position. This is not a function of the Monopod.
