Question about Gitzo Mountaineer GT3542 Series 3 with 4 sections

Yes, Manfrotto heads can generally be used on Gitzo tripods, provided they are compatible with the tripod mount. Most Gitzo tripods, including the Mountaineer GT3542, use Arca-Swiss compatibility as standard, which makes it possible to mount heads from different manufacturers, including Manfrotto, as long as they support the Arca-Swiss standard. However, it is advisable to check that the specific Manfrotto head is compatible with the Gitzo tripod before purchasing.
