Benro S6 Video Head - how do you level?

I'm thinking of getting the Benro S6 head, but I'm not sure I want to get the Benro legs. I would really prefer a bowl type solution, but I guess the S6 doesn't have it. My question - how do I level the S6? I have a Manfrotto flat base tripod and also a WF-717 that takes a 75mm bowl. How do I attach the S6 to either of these? I hope to be able to level the head without adjusting the legs, because adjusting legs is so inconvenient, frankly that would be a deal breaker. What do I need to get?
 
That's what I do with my S6. Mostly, I use it on a monopod since it's vastly better than the Manfrotto 701. But I'll also put the half ball on it when I need another camera position.

 
Thank you very much, everybody. TheDingo, I'm getting the 75mm half ball adapter.

There are two types of half balls that you can get. I got the short one because my sticks allow the head to be lowered very close to the ground and the short adapter doesn't get in the way. The longer adapter is slightly easier to use on a day to day basis, though.
