WARNING:
If the Modified Swivel Adaptor Torque Screw becomes tight before the starburst is
properly meshed, the knob is incorrectly adjusted for this skull clamp. Use a 5/64"
hex wrench to turn the adjustment screw counter clockwise four full turns to reset the
screw. See Illustration 1 for adjustment screw location.
If the starburst fails to mesh correctly after the screw is reset, the Modified Swivel Adaptor
may be incompatible with this particular clamp. See Section 2 for details.
3. With the adapter securely applied to the skull clamp, use a 5/64" hex wrench to turn
the adjustment screw clockwise until it is tight. See Illustration 4. Check the ratchet
extension for movement.
WARNING:
This setting is optimized for use on that skull clamp to which it is adjusted. A single
setting may be effective on several skull clamps but it may also be over-adjusted for
some other clamps.
During the preoperative equipment check, verify that the starburst teeth fully engage
on the skull clamp that will be used. It is important for patient safety to perform this
inspection before the equipment is used for patient support.
