for aligning the socket connection.
Do not touch the joint mechanism when flexing the knee joint – risk of injury and
finger pinching!
Basic set-up
„
The prosthesis should be assembled in such a way that in the frontal view (fig. 1) the plumb
line runs from the center of the socket through the adjustment core and the centre of the tube
adapter. In the sagittal view (fig. 2) the reference line (b) runs from the trochanter major (T)
10 mm in front of the pivot axis of the knee joint to the transition between the rear third and
middle third of the prosthetic foot, the heel height is set at approx. 5 mm. The individual condi-
tions of the patient (e.g. flexion contracture) must be taken into account in the further course.
Shifting the socket posteriorly increases the dynamics and reduces the stability.
Shifting the socket anteriorly increases the stability and reduces the dynamics.
