     Aluminum Slide Adapter with 4-Hole Pyramid (FND-134125)

 

4 M6 X 16 Screws

 

4 M6 X 35 Screws

 Instructions

Note:  The pyramid dome on the Aluminum Slide Adapter is held in place by a magnet with an intensity of  

28 gauss at the magnet surface, and 0 gauss at a distance of 4" from the surface. This intensity is comparable  

to that of a refrigerator magnet. Please share this information with the amputee, in the event that the amputee  

is wearing a pacemaker or any other device that could be affected by magnetism.

INSTALLATION

1. 

Using the four M6 X 16 screws included with the Slide Adapter, attach the Slide Adapter to the socket as shown. 
(Alternately, use the M6 X 35 screws that are also included with the Slide Adapter to attach the Slide Adapter to 
an Alpha Lock or Alpha Locking Lanyard.) Tighten the screws to 12 Nm or 9 ft-lbs.

2.  Connect a pyramid receiver component of your choice to the Slide Adapter. Tighten the setscrews using the 

torque and threadlocker specifications provided by the manufacturer of the pyramid receiver.

 

Note: the purpose of the 5 mm setscrew is only to keep the pyramid from sliding when angular adjustments 

are made. If the 5 mm setscrew is tight before attaching the receiver, it will prevent the dome from locking 

tightly against the housing and titanium pyramid. 

3.  To make a slide adjustment:

a.  Loosen the 5 mm setscrew on the side of the Slide Adapter.

b.  Loosen two adjacent 8 mm setscrews on the pyramid receptacle.

c.  Slide the pyramid to the desired position.

d.  Before tightening the 5 mm setscrew, tighten the 8 mm setscrews using the torque and threadlocker  

specifications provided by the manufacturer of the pyramid receptacle.

e.  Hand-tighten the 5 mm setscrew on the side of the Slide Adapter. 

4.  To make a rotation adjustment (applicable only to FND-134150):

a.  Loosen two adjacent 8 mm setscrews on the pyramid receptacle.

b.  Rotate the pyramid to the desired position.

c.  Tighten the 8 mm setscrews using the torque and threadlocker specifications provided by the manufacturer 

of the pyramid receptacle.
