  • Some filing/sanding may be needed to ensure a perfect fit with the handle

Instructions to use :

  • Put the tool in the screw head
  • Place yourself facing the 0 section of the tool
  • Turn the screw until you face the the angle you wish to reach (in the right direction, use the arrows)
  • That's it ... ^^
