USS II
Handling technique
5
Place sleeve over implant and rod
Push the sleeve pusher down the cylinder to place the sleeve
over the rod and implant (1). Retract the sleeve pusher (2).
The sleeve remains on the implant/rod.
If the sleeve cannot be positioned easily, ensure that the
lateral opening of the screw or hook is properly aligned on
the rod. If necessary, a light tap on the sleeve pusher may
help. The hook positioner for USS II may be used for this pur-
pose: place it in the round indentation on the handle of the
sleeve pusher.
6
Attach implant to rod
Remove the persuader. Pick up a nut with the socket wrench
for twelve point nut, allow it to slide over the stick and screw
it loosely on to the implant.
