Sagittal alignment:
Determine the centre of the prosthetic socket with the 50:50
gauge.
Align the prosthetic socket centrally to the alignment reference line.
Socket flexion:
Residual limb flexion of the patient + 5°
Frontal plane
Alignment reference line of prosthetic foot: between big toe and
   
second toe
Alignment reference line of prosthetic socket: along the lateral
patella edge
   
Observe the abduction or adduction position.
Foot size [cm]
23 to 27
TF bench alignment
► Observe the information in the prosthetic knee joint instructions for use.
5.2.2 Static Alignment
Ottobock recommends checking the alignment of the prosthesis using
the L.A.S.A.R. Posture and adapting it as needed.
If necessary, the alignment recommendations (TF modular leg pros­
theses: 646F219*, TT modular leg prostheses: 646F336*) may be
requested from Ottobock.
5.2.3 Dynamic Trial Fitting
Adapt the setup of the prosthesis in the frontal plane and the sagittal
plane (e.g. by making angle or slide adjustments) so that correct heel
contact and optimal roll-over are ensured.
TT fittings:Make sure that physiological knee movement is achieved
after the heel makes impact and the leg begins to bear weight.
5.3 Optional: Installing the foam cover
A connecting element (such as a connection plate, connection cap or foam
connection cap) provides a detachable connection between the foam cover
and the prosthetic foot.
