3-2 Assembly Procedure
3-2-1 Static alignment
Perform static alignment according to the
following procedure.
● Alignment of frontal plane
Complete alignment so that the load line
passes through the center of the knee
joint and falls in the heel center of the
foot section.
● Alignment of sagittal plane
As shown in Fig. 7, complete alignment
so that the weight load line passes
through the center of the knee axis of the
knee joint within a deviation of ±5 mm
(0 mm recommended).
Improper alignment may result in poor
self-lock
applied to the parts may accelerate wear.
For users who wear hip prostheses and
play any sports such as golf, use of a
CAUTION
torsion adapter is recommended. If the
adapter is not used, large torsion force
will be applied to the prosthesis, and
wear of parts may be accelerated.
