2. Once the Skull Clamp is applied to the patient’s skull, the surgeon will maneuver the patient to the surgical position
that is required for the procedure. With the patient in this position, the surgeon will hold the patient’s head and the
Skull Clamp and request that the Transitional Arm be brought up to the proper height for attachment of the Skull
Clamp to the Swivel Adaptor.
a) Once the Transitional Arm is at the proper height for attachment to the Skull Clamp, the mounting screw of the
large starburst on the Swivel Adaptor should be inserted into the large starburst of the Skull Clamp and turned
clockwise
and tightened. Care should be taken to maintain the position of the patient’s head as requested by the surgeon.
b) Ensure that the Skull Clamp is securely attached to the Swivel Adaptor by turning the mounting screw on the top
of the Swivel Adaptor clockwise to tighten (Figure 9A). Close the Locking Lever. Make certain that all starburst
teeth are fully meshed (where applicable) on all joints of the Base Unit after adjustments are complete.
