• Fitting Instructions:
  - Secure and fasten all softgoods. Ensure the patella remains exposed and that the medial and lateral hinges are aligned just above mid-patella.
  - To determine brace length, position the hinge pivot center slightly above the knee joint midline.
  - To increase length of the strut, rotate length adjustment lever one-half turn (180 degrees) to the unlocked position.
  - Position and alignment marks are provided on the metal strut. When desired side strut length has been achieved, rotate length adjustment lever back to the locked position. Strut is preset at 23" (58 cm). Do this adjustment for both hinges. To decrease length of strut, the extension bars may be completely removed to minimize length to 17" (43 cm). If extension bars are removed on cool version brace replace the pad on the adjacent strut D-ring with cool softgood and strap.
  - After length is determined, trim softgood padding as necessary. Cool softgoods should not be trimmed.
  - Fasten buckles and adjust strap length, starting with the two straps closest to the knee. Straps may be trimmed if necessary. If straps are trimmed, secure straps using supplied hooks
  - Apply anti-migration (gastroc/calf) strap as required (optional).
  - To adjust range of motion, press the flexion or extension button and rotate until the desired degree of flexion or extension appears through the indicator window.
  - To set the hinge lock, determine the desired lock angle. Align the setting arrow on the hinge to the appropriate angle as marked on the lower side bar sleeve. Slide the drop lock button to secure the angle of the hinge.
  - To enforce compliance, insert supplied ROM locks (H) into the holes in the flexion and extension buttons to limit range of motion adjustment.
  - The side bars may be bent to fit individual anatomy. Side bars must be bent with final length adjustments completed and with metal struts installed in the plastic sleeves. Bend with bending irons.
  - To remove the brace, release buckles and open the foam pads. The brace can then be removed and reapplied as a single unit.

  - This product may be cleaned using a mild detergent and cold water. Remove hinge assembly before washing. Do not use bleach or strong detergents. Do not wash in washing machine or place in dryer.
