CAUTION
Error during alignment of the prosthesis.
Errors during the alignment of the prosthesis can lead to mal-
function of the joint up to loss of function due to structural failure. This can cause the patient to fall. With the 3C96-1
and 3C86-1 models, the scaling must be positioned in front of the tube. The 2R80=110 Tube Adapter is approved for a
maximum weight of 100 kg / 220 lbs.

Turn the foot slightly outward (adjustment range ±30° to suit the needs of the patient) and pre-fasten the screws
lightly at the tube clamp.
