KnieAgil® Joints User Manual SL2
Manual Lock
The joint is delivered with the manual lock
activated. This means that the lock will auto­
matically lock in extension. It can be manually
released by pulling the release cable.
Position the release cable in a suitable
spot on the socket. A threaded plate,
which can be used to position the cable,
is enclosed with the cable.
The manual lock can be deactivated
permanently. This may be done during
the course of therapy, when the user’s
constitution seems to be well enough to
forgo the automatic lock in extension and
use a load­dependent brake instead for
standing stability.
To permanently deactivate the manual
lock, proceed as follows:
• Detach the cable on both sides from the
slotted screws
• Extend the joint. The lock will activate.
• Manually lift the lock latch, until the
joint is unlocked.
• You will now be able to see the two
hexagon socket screws #4 on the sides,
with a wrench size of 1,5 mm. Unscrew
them far enough so they are flush with
the locking element on top of them.

• The manual lock has now been deac­
tivated. Make certain again that the
brake unit is perfectly adjusted to the
user’s safety needs.
Readjusting the Manual Lock
The locking behavior of the lock can be
adjusted. In case the lock does not lock per­
fectly in extension, the distance within the
lock latch can be adjusted with screw #5.
Should there be play within the lock unit
after a longer period of use, this screw
can also be used to readjust the unit.
