The patient should sit down and slip forwards to the edge of the chair, the knee joint is bent
approx. 30°.

Place the brace on the patient's leg and use the enclosed key to adapt the brace to the patient's
leg axis. Ensure correct positioning. The polycentric joint should be positioned at the height of
the centre of the patella and on the side of the leg. If required, the side condyle pad (10 mm material
thickness) can be replaced with a thinner version (7 mm material thickness).

Close the fasteners in the following order:
1. Proximal fastener on the lower leg
2. Distal fastener on the lower leg
3. Distal fastener on the thigh
4. Proximal fastener on the thigh
Whilst tightening the fastener, smoothen it in the tension direction with your free hand. This avoids twisting
the brace on the leg.

Use the enclosed key to set the required correction pressure when the brace is positioned and the
patient is sitting. For this purpose, adjustment screws are provided on the rear beneath the joint.
Avoid overcorrection!
Important: let the patient try walking. If required, the fitting correction pressure can be readjusted.
