Leg guides with calf shells
The leg guides (fig. 65a) at the safety foot shell are movable and
spring mounted so that an ankle joint movement is possible. This is
important as the calf muscle pump in the legs can increase the speed
of the blood flowing back to the heart. The calf shells are formed in
a way that an easier fixation to the shell is possible. Due to their
flexible form they can be adjusted to the lower leg.
Don’t adjust the calf shells too high; they must not touch the lower
legs. The calf shells need to rest against the calves for an optimal
guidance and hold of the legs (fig. 65b). Loosen the wing screw and
adjust the height accordingly. Make sure that the minimum insertion
depth of 3 cm/1.2 inches is maintained. As soon as you have fixed
the feet into the foot shells, you need to tighten the Velcro straps
around the calf.
Caution:
Make sure that the Velcro Straps are securely tightened
around the calves (fig. 65b).
Pay attention to the safety precaution.
