Recognizing Incompatible Equipment
Older model skull clamps fabricated using the two piece machined race lock in the body of the skull clamp will not accept
the extended stud that is part of the Modified Swivel Adapter. Access to the ratchet arm is partially obstructed, causing
the Modified Swivel Adapter Torque Screw to stop before the starbursts can properly engage. Compatibility can be readily
determined by looking through the threaded hole on the skull clamp base.
Look for a two piece
base design, indicated
by the fasteners.
It is possible to convert some of these older model clamps to accept the longer post of the Modified Tri-Star Swivel
Adapter. Evaluations on suitability for conversion are made by the Service Department, phone: (513) 533-7979 or 877-444-
