Abstract: A screw installation aid holds and aligns a screw in an inclined screw axis relative to the component to be screwed. At least one screw guide receives the screw in the inclined screw axis, and a screwing tool advances through an opening to the screw head coaxially to the screw axis, to install the screw in the component in its inclined position. The screw installation aid encompasses a telescopic cross-member including at least two support segments adjustable coaxially to one another, the undersides of which facing the component form a level and, before adaptation to the component, continuous support surface, each of the undersides bearing one of the clamping blocks. The clamping blocks can be positioned from a closing to an opening position against the resistance of a spring device between both support segments and a screw guide is enclosed in at least one of the support segments.
