3.9 Optional: Attaching a cosmetic cover
Objective
A foam cover can be used as a cosmetic cover. Correct attachment ensures the function of the Harmony P3 unit.
Required tools and materials:
• Foam cover with 34 mm opening, silicone spray, Superskin or 99B116* SoftTouch sock
Cut the foam cover so it is not crushed.
Grind the contour of the foam cover.
INFORMATION: Use silicone spray to eliminate
noises. Talcum impairs the function of the vacuum
pump.
Pull the foam cover over the prosthesis and per­
form the fitting.
Do not bond the foam cover to the prosthetic foot.
Position the discharge flange (Ottobock recommends a
medial position at ankle height) and bond it to the foam
cover.
Form the closure with Superskin or a SoftTouch sock.
