The Condylar Sphere (4) is in its BASIC
POSITION when both the Larger Anterior
Stop Screw (10) and the Smaller Stop Screw
(11) for Condylar Sphere are turned as far as
possible in a clockwise direction.
The Smaller Anterior Stop Screw (11) for
Condylar Sphere has a left hand thread: It
will move into the Condylar Track (2) when
it is turned counterclockwise.
Note: Condylar Spheres MUST always be
FULLY UNLOCKED during any adjust-
ments of the Anterior Stop Screws (Lock
Screws for Condylar Spheres (3) should be
turned all the way counter clockwise)
The Condylar Spheres (4) should both be pla-
ced and locked in their BASIC POSITION
during routine work with the Articulator.
These adjustments enhance the reproduction
of individual jaw movements.
