A surgical device adapter (200) for coupling an end effector (300) to a handle assembly (100) is disclosed. The surgical device adapter (200) includes: a housing (252, 260) a drive mechanism (330, 332) disposed within the housing and couplable to the handle assembly (100) and the end effector and a drive coupling assembly (210) coupled to the surgical device adapter and selectively couplable to the handle assembly (100), the drive coupling assembly (210) including a retraction assembly (280, 282) selectively couplable to the drive mechanism (330, 332) such that rotation of the drive coupling assembly (210) about a longitudinal axis defined by the surgical device adapter and relative to the housing actuates the drive mechanism (330, 332).
