2.2.3. Setting the limitation for size L/L, L/M, L/S, M/S
The limitation restricts the range of motion. All steps must be executed identically
with both hinges.
Dorsal extension and the redression range are limited by the stop screw. In a
second step, the set value can be reduced up to a maximum of 15°, enabling
infinitely variable adjustment of the redression range.
Before setting the dorsal extensions limitation, you must deactivate the spring
tension.

There are three holes on the side of the CDS
®
housing. The number of degrees
depends on the position of the redression and limitation range and can be
determined with a goniometer. The stop screw is located in one of the holes.
Then turn the stop screw with the supplied tool from the CDS
®
housing.

Before screwing it into one of the three holes, bring the brace into plantar flexion,
so that the holes are freely accessible.
Position the stop screw in the desired position and tighten the screw. The
limitation can be adjusted to the treatment progress with increasing mobility of
the patient.
Please be aware that the brace must only be used with the stop screw
positioned and tightened in one of the holes, otherwise the hinge will be
damaged.
