5.1 Selecting the Size
> Required tools: 743S1=60 diameter or 743E10 measuring tool
1) Measure the width of the torso 4 cm below the shoulder blades (see fig. 3).
2) Measure the width of the torso at the level of the iliac crest (see fig. 4).
3) Determine the size of the tube frames using the measured dimensions and the size chart on
page 5.
4) INFORMATION: Determine the size of the brace (XS/S/M/L/XL/XXL) on the basis of
the width of the torso below the shoulder blades.
If necessary, order the lower tube frame one size smaller or bigger and then replace it
(reference number 29R394=XS/S/M/L/XL/XXL).
5.2 Adaptation

Damage to the product due to overloading of the material and improper fit of the product due to
breakage of load-bearing components
► Do not make any improper changes to the product.
1) NOTICE! Make sure not to damage the pins when attaching or removing the pads.
Attach the sacral pad at the lower tube frame (see fig. 5).
2) Optional: To increase wearer comfort, attach and adapt the side pads, which can be ordered

three holes for horizontal positioning. Place cover caps on all pads when positioning
