Adjusting the distance from the brace joint to the ankle
1) Mark the foot contour on the foot component. The pivot point of the
brace joint has to line up with the pivot point of the ankle joint (see
fig. 2).
2) Trim the sole to fit the inner contour of the shoe (see fig. 3). Take the foot
contour into account in doing so.
3) Round the edges of the foot component. Use a silicone cone for this pur­
pose.
