Otto Bock 17AD100 10 Instructions For Use Manual page 34

Mounting the foot stirrup
1) Check the position of the bearing bushing (see fig. 1, item 8) in the foot
stirrup (item 7).
2) Place the basic piece of the joint (item 2) onto the foot stirrup with the
axial washers (item 5) (see fig. 8). Insert one axial washer per side and
ensure that the foot stirrup is centred.
3) Check whether the foot component can be moved smoothly and without
play. Use axial washers of varying thicknesses if necessary.
4) Make sure that the axial washers prevent direct contact between the met­
al basic piece and the foot stirrup.
5) Insert the joint screw (item 4) and the joint nut (item 3) and secure the
screw connection with Loctite 241 and the corresponding torque (see
fig. 9).
See the illustration of the ankle joint for the corresponding wrench sizes and
tightening torque values (see fig. 1).
Mounting the bar
► Fasten the bar to the basic piece using the countersunk head screws
and secure the screw connections with Loctite 241 and the correspond­
ing torque.
See the illustration of the ankle joint for the corresponding wrench sizes and
tightening torque values (see fig. 1).
6.3 Installing the modules
INFORMATION
Ottobock recommends checking the alignment of the orthosis using the
L.A.S.A.R. Posture or L.A.S.A.R. Posture 3D and adapting it as needed.
► We recommend positioning the sagittal load line approx.15 mm in front
of the knee compromise pivot point according to Nietert (see fig. 3, see
fig. 4).
Thanks to the individual options for combining the specific modules with one
another, the system ankle joint can be adjusted to needs of the patient. The
adjustment of the alignment can be controlled via the angle adjustment of the
system ankle joint. The angle adjustment can be set via the screw depth of
the 17AD100A=AS*, 17AD100A=LS* setscrews and the 17AD100A=HS*
stop pin.
