Choose a self-tapping locking screw according to the meas-
ured length. To insert the locking screw using a power tool,
fit a torque limiter to the power tool and insert the screw-
driver shaft into the torque limiter.
Insert the locking screw into the plate hole through the drill
sleeve for LISS insertion guide. To insert the screw, start the
power tool slowly, increase the speed and then reduce it
again before the screw is fully tightened. Advance the screws
into the bone until the second bulge of the screwdriver dis-
appears in the drill sleeve.
