2 Key points
3 Transport and storage
The Orion3
must not
be used with large variations in heel height.
Do not
attempt stairs descent leg-over-leg on a Orion3 knee unless you have
been trained for stairs descent.
1 Ensure that the Orion3 is in a straight (fully extended) position when not in use.
2 If the limb is to be stored upright then it must be secured to prevent it falling over or
flexing.
3 If the Orion3 is shipped either on its own or built into a limb it should be maintained
in an extended position and packaged in a suitable box to allow this.
4 If a unit is to be returned, contact Endolite prior to sending if there is any sign of
physical damage to the battery pack.
5 For transport purposes the unit must be switched off, and packed securely so that a)
it cannot be inadvertently switched on and become operative while in transit; b) the
unit is thoroughly protected from damage in transit.
