Distal Femoral Cut

Instrument Assembly
The femoral instrumentation is not side specific,
therefore it is used for left and right knees.
1. Insert the femoral saw slot into the femoral distal
cut guide and tighten it at the "0" position with a
3.5 mm hex head screwdriver.
Note: The femoral saw slot when secured at
the "0" position on the femoral distal cut guide
resects 10 mm off the most distal condyle.
2. Assemble the femoral A/P slider to the distal
femoral cut guide by tightening the blue screw.
