ASSEMBLY
1. Loosen the tube clamp on each stilt. Insert the lower strut tubes up
through the bottom of the tube clamps. Leave the tube clamps loose for
now.
2 Attach lower strut tubes to the outer leg bracket with the attached 1¾” x
¼” cap screw. Tighten well when the assembly is complete.
3. Slide the upper strut tubes down over the lower strut tubes and through
the tube clamps. Position so that the leg bands are just above the fullest
part of the leg calf. NOTE: Do not bend the leg bands.
4. Evenly tighten the leg tube clamps enough to prevent the upper tube
from rotating when used. Do not overtighten as the tubes could become
deformed and require replacement.
5. Position the tube clamps in the clamp bracket slots, according to your calf
size, so that the stilts will stand straight when mounted, and tighten up well.
6. Attach the heel brackets to the footplates using the 10-24 x ½” machine
screws and nuts. Adjust the heel brackets so your outside ankle bone is
directly over the rear pivot bolt, and tighten securely.
