one to the right of the lock. With these
screws, the lock can be permanently

Static Fitting
Upon delivery, every joint is set to
a basic setting.
Ask the patient to stand up. Remain close,
so you can support the patient if necessary.
Individually adjust all components until
the patient is able to stand securely.

ted if desired. We recommend following
