Centering Sleeve/Spindle
(cont.)
Slide the spindle over the anchor plug traction bar until
it fits snugly against the prepared femoral osteotomy site.
Note:
The centering sleeve must be completely
seated within the prepared canal at the bone-
implant interface.
The spindle should be aligned anteriorly so that the
rotation alignment mark and one of the female spindle
slots lines up with the vertical rotational alignment
mark made earlier (Figure 67).
Figure 67
Position the anti-torque wrench into two of the female
spindle slots and tighten the locking knob (Figures 68
and 69).
