• Adjust the initial guide height accordingly by placing
the universal tibial cutting block against the proximal
tibia at the estimated resection level.
• Attach the tibial stylus (32-700072) to the tibial universal
cutting block by placing the appropriate stylus tongue
into the slot on the universal tibial cutting block
(Figure 22).
- Select 4 mm off the medial low or 12 mm off the
lateral high.
- Use the island outline marked previously to place the
tibial universal cutting block in the correct M/L
location. The center of the tibial universal cutting
block should approximately align with the center
of the island. If the tibial universal cutting guide is
placed too medially, there will be insufficient cutting
surface when making the lateral tibial resection in
subsequent steps.
