is that right? how do i heat up the screws, i can't even see them! won't they just melt?

Heat it with a soldering iron and no, it won't melt the screw.hopefully

Cheers!

Solder has a low melting point, something like 200°C, compared to steel which is in the thousands of degrees. Hence, unless the grub screws are made from solder, which is highly unlikely, they aren't going to melt if you use a soldering iron on them.
