Shift Block
Prior to performing the four facet cuts with the 4-in-1
cut guide, determine whether the position of the block
anterior to posterior and external rotation is sufficient.
If adjustment is needed, remove the 4-in-1 cut guide
from the femur and insert the shift block using the
same holes in the distal face of the femur (Figure 123).
To select the method of adjustment, depress button
and rotate drill guide until the desired face is shown. If
a 2 degrees rotation is desired, rotate the guide to the
appropriate 2 degrees rotation face (Figure 124).
If an A/P shift is desired, rotate the guide to the
appropriate 1 mm shift face (Figure 125).
