10) Sand down the contour of the inner socket to thin it.
11) INFORMATION: For installation after sanding, the pin receiver
thread has to be evenly exposed.
Sand the distal end of the inner socket flat at right angles to the length­
wise axis of the residual limb.
12) Coat the pin receiver with bonding agent and insert it in the inner socket
(see Fig. 4).
