Let me preface this with a hope that I am not missing something patently obvious here and end feeling like a total... well, lets see.
I just received an Arca d4 tripod head and can not mount any of the camera plates that I have used for many years on several different heads. There are two problems: one is that there are two small pins projecting upward from the bottom of the clamp that appear immovable, the second being that the space between the "jaws" of the clamp are quite a bit too narrow to accept the plates that I have. I had thought to replace the clamp with one from another head but, makeing matters even worse, I can not see any means of removing the clamp from the head as it is attached by a screw that has a round hole in the center and does not grip any form of screw driver, hex wrench, or star pattern device.
Am I indeed missing something here?
Thanks.
