•
Wrap and fasten wrap foot flaps, followed by the leg portion of
the liner.

Liner should be snug from top to bottom but should not constrict.
3. Holding the coloured “pull up” tabs, gently open up the side
panels of the boot.
•
Place heel into the boot first, followed by forefoot.
•
Ankle should be centred between side panels, with foot and ankle
positioned at a 90° angle.
4. Once alignment is correct,
•
Remove the coloured “pull up” tabs and gently press the boot’s side
panels onto the liner.
5. Ensure the Velcro on boot is making contact with liner.
6. Fasten the straps
, beginning at the toe then moving up the limb.
•
Do not over-tighten. Adjust the straps if swelling changes.
Note:
For added comfort, the extra rectangular shaped pads may be
used as additional padding inside the liner, under the strap or between
the boot shell and liner.
