[APML] F2 Emergency

Hi guys,

when I was tightening my Manfrotto clamp in the thread of my F2, I tightened
it a bit too much (as it was still sort of loose), and I think I ripped the
thread portion out of the camera's bottom. The bolt that's threaded in there
turns loosely, but cannot be unthreaded out of the threads. I think I could
get a better look at this by removing the bottom plate of the camera, but I
wanted to ask the experts first: is this a safe thing to do? Or will
something jump at me when I open it? I have experience with removing parts
that were nearly impossible to replace afterwards, and I don't want to do
this with my best camera.

Ulrich
