3. Being careful not to touch the studs, flip the plastic mount up with the index finger enough to grasp the sides of the mount with the thumb and middle finger (Figures 7-1 & 7-2). Lift the mount out of the sterile container.
The studs should be at the bottom of the mount and the clasps at the top of the mount (Figure 7-3).
4. Insert one stud head into the stud adapter and pull the mount straight up to release the stud from the mount (Figure 8).
5. While keeping the instrument in the upright position, slide the corresponding clasp (located directly above the stud) into the clasp retainer at the end of the instrument (Figure 9).
