Fitting the Foot Shell
Careful handling while fitting will extend the function and service life of the foot shell
Never use sharp tools such as screwdrivers to fit or remove the foot shell. We also
recommend not to fit the foot shell when the patient is wearing the foot prosthesis

Do as follows:
Pull the protective sock on over the fibre composite foot.
Put the forefoot in the foot shell as far as you can and place a shoe horn
between the end of the heel and inside the foot shell. Assure that the foot shell
is touching the inner bottom surface.
Gently push the heel into position. Make sure the foot ends up straight and in
the appropriate notches on the inside of the foot shell.
Pull away the shoe horn and check that the composite foot’s heel laminate
snaps into the heel lock in the foot shell (See figure A).
Only a Lindhe Xtend foot shell may be used with the fibre composite foot.
