CAUTION: SITTING WHILE IN THE LEG STRAPS WILL DISPLACE THE HIP AXIS OF
LOCATION AWAY FROM AND OUT OF THE LEG STRAPS; REPOSITIONING OF THE
LEG STRAPS WILL BE NECESSARY.
Leg Strap Application
1. Wrap Velcro thigh cuff portion below bulk of thigh and above knee so strap
does not interfere with knee function.
2. Strap should be perpendicular to ground and pointing up toward the hip on
the outside of leg.
3. Connect male buckles on leg straps into plastic groin piece female buckles.
4. Tighten all three straps keeping center strap perpendicular to the ground
and on the lateral surface of the leg. The bifurcation point on the strap
(where the strap splits into two) needs to be at the hip joint axis of rotation
to maintain symmetry.
5. Straps must be tightened completely, using a two-handed technique and
getting rid of all slack, to properly anchor the harness in place and properly
transfer the support to the thighs.
