SHORTENING THE RODS (OPTIONAL)
If necessary shorten the rods (the guide markings are shown in fig. A):
Free the rods from the padding (thigh or calf) (fig. A).
Remove the straps from the terminal and intermediate valves (fig. B).
Remove from the two rods the valves pressing towards the centre, placing the
screwdriver in the appropriate notch and pressing outwards (fig. C).
Place the rod on a worktable so that the edge is aligned with the grooves on the rod
(which coincides with the desired length). Press downwards till it breaks (fig. D).
Reposition the terminal valve on the shortened rod, which need not be smoothed
down. Slide in the straps.
