Drill hole for screw
3.2 mm and determine
the screw length
A screw
3.2 mm may be inserted through the hole in the
back of the hook to fit the pedicle hook in the pedicle tightly.
Use the 3-flute drill bit
2.0 mm with the USS drill sleeve
2.0 and an oscillating drill to drill the screw hole. The drill
sleeve consists of two parts, the sleeve and the handle. These
two components must be screwed together before use.
Note:
Do not start the power drill if the bit does not hit
bone after passing through the drill sleeve.
Remove the drill sleeve and determine the depth of the hole
using the depth gauge.
