Description

Recommend Buying Two

If you operate your mount remotely and are concerned about cables snagging on the RA clutch knobs, you may wish to remove them and substitute our modified set screws. Please do not attempt to install standard set screws, since they must be a particular length and profile to work properly. If you install the modified screws, you will have to use the 5/32" Allen-head wrench from the set included with your mount to loosen and tighten them. Please tighten evenly with respect to the opposing clutch knob and do not over tighten. These set screws are only necessary for the side of the mount that has the cable. The normal clutch knobs will remain on the other side. Please note that each mount requires only 2 modified clutch set screws.

The illustration also shows the DOVEKBEP, another option for snag-free operation of your mount.

Grace P. ★★★★★

Replaced the stock knobs with these set screws for remote sessions, and the slimmer profile completely clears my cable runs now. Threaded them in with a hex key in under two minutes, no wobble at all.

Aurora ★★★★★

I was worried about cable snags during remote sessions, and swapping these in for the stock knobs gave me peace of mind. The hex socket fits perfectly and they thread in smoothly.

Abigail E. ★★★★★

These set screws are a perfect fit and solved the problem of cables catching on the knobs during remote sessions. They threaded in smoothly and hold tight, making the mount much cleaner for automated use.
