Clive Alex Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Hi, I have two vintage Miller universal fluid heads and I need to change the bowl on one of them, but I can't see any access to removing it. Both lower bolts on their bowls have a hole through them, but other than that I can't see anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Wyss Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 What do you think these bores are for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Alex Posted January 15, 2015 Author Share Posted January 15, 2015 I have no idea, I don't want to force anything without knowing the removal procedure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Wyss Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Well, you hold the head and undo the bolt with the ball, a rod traversing the bore is your grip. Can take some force The bowl is with the legs by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Alex Posted January 15, 2015 Author Share Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) I thought this, but the bowl and head have a pin which prevents the bowl from unscrewing from the head. The last time I took an Arri head and bowl apart there was a nut and circlip holding the bowl bolt in place. It looks like a sealed unit, but surley it would come apart for servicing.
