5.
Slide the leg padding between the legs
toward the front and close the buckles.
Adjust the position of the harness and
the tension of the straps according to
patient disability and comfort.
Note:
The body weight should not be supported by
the leg straps, but by the pelvis strap!
6.
The weight is mainly supported by the
thorax element, for this reason it must
be well tightened.
The thorax strap must not be twisted,
for buckle position see figure! Ensure
that the safety buckles are securely
latched.
7.
If the patient's condition allows it,
tighten all fastening straps in standing.
If it is not possible, this can be carried
out after suspending the patient. Se-
cure seating must be ensured before
treatment.
To achieve better pelvic extension it is
recommended that the led straps be
tightened in the back. Ensure in ad-
vance that the thorax strap is pulled
down as far as possible.
8.
Ensure that the upper leg pad and leg
straps are applied as shown in the fig-
ure.
Note:
The leg padding can be crossed between the
legs or applied according to the patient's
comfort.
There should be no uncomfortable points
where the leg straps press against the body.
