BENCH ALIGNMENT (Figure 2 & 3)
• Fit foot with selected cover.
• Adjust prosthesis to appropriate heel height (using the shoe).
• Introduce appropriate socket angles flexion/extension and abduction/
adduction.
• Divide the foot cover into 3 equal portions.
• The load line should fall at the junction of the posterior and the
middle third portions as shown in the diagram.
INITIAL FITTING
When the user is standing, with equal weight on both limbs and full
weight transferred onto the prosthesis, the LP Rotate™ should compress
a maximum of 1-3mm. The compression resistance can be adjusted by
either changing the inner rod or by turning the adjustment plug through
the top of the male pyramid using 6mm hex key. It is sometimes
necessary to upgrade the stiffness of the rod to control the vertical
displacement and allow increased heel to toe function.
ROD ADJUSTMENTS (Figure 4)
Compression resistance can be adjusted by either changing the
compression element or by turning the adjustment plug (a) through the
top of the male or female pyramid adapter using a 6mm hex key. Ensure
adjustment plug (a) is in contact with inner rod. Turn the adjustment
plug (a) CLOCKWISE for stiffer compression. COUNTERCLOCKWISE for
a softer compression.
