WARNING
Jeopardising the Therapy Goal by Incorrectly Filing the System Stirrup
If you need to file the system stirrup, note all information provided in these instructions for use. Do not file
the system stirrup, especially for the dorsiflexion stop, too far, otherwise the forefoot lever is not activated.
As a result, the patient's gait worsens due to a lack of stability. Therefore:
- file the system stirrup always gradually up to the required stop angles and
- do not file more than 10° later on.
WARNING
Jeopardising the Therapy Goal Due to Incorrectly Adjusted Spring Units
Screw in the spring unit up to the system stirrup and do not preload the spring unit. If the stops are
reached too early or too late, either the range of motion is restricted or the patient is not sufficiently stabi-
lised by the orthosis, which impairs the gait.
WARNING
Damage to the Anatomical Joint Due to Incorrect Position of the Joint’s Mechanical Pivot Point
Determine the joint’s mechanical pivot points correctly in order to avoid a permanent incorrect load on the
anatomical joint. Please refer to the online tutorials on our website or contact Technical Support.
NOTICE
Limitation of the Joint Function Due to Improper Processing
Errors in processing can impair the joint function. Pay particular attention to:
- correctly connecting the system side bar/system anchor with the system case in accordance with the
production technique;
-
greasing the joint components only
slightly
and
- adhering to the maintenance intervals.
NOTICE
Breakage of System Components Due to Predetermined Breaking Point at the System Stirrup
If you need to file the system stirrup, note all information provided in these instructions for use in order to
avoid predetermined breaking points. File the system stirrup along the laser lines.
