Ottobock 1C68 Triton side flex Instrucciones De Uso página 22

Required materials: Degreasing cleaner (e.g. 634A58 isopropyl alco­
>
hol), 636N9 contact adhesive or 636W17 plastic adhesive
1) Measure the distance from the knee rotation point to the desired end of
the foam cover and add the compression allowance: 10 mm for poly­
ethylene foam, 30 mm for polyurethane soft foam. For TF prostheses,
add twice the compression allowance because a compression allowance
is needed both above and below the knee axis.
2) Cut the pre-shaped foam cover to length and fit it in the proximal area on
the prosthetic socket.
3) Pull the foam cover over the prosthesis.
4) Set the connecting element onto the footshell or prosthetic foot. Depend­
ing on the version, the connecting element engages in the edge or sits
on the foot adapter.
5) Mount the prosthetic foot on the prosthesis.
6) Mark the outer contour of the connecting element on the distal face of
the foam cover.
7) Dismount the prosthetic foot and remove the connecting element.
8) Clean the connecting element using a degreasing cleaner.
9) Glue the connecting element onto the distal face of the foam cover
according to the marked outer contour.
10) Let the glue dry (approx. 10 minutes).
11) Mount the prosthetic foot and adapt the exterior cosmetic cover shape.
Take into account compression due to cosmetic stockings or SuperSkin.
