Jeopardising the Therapy Goal Due to Lack of Free Movement
Check if the system joint moves freely in order to avoid restrictions of the joint function. Use suitable
sliding washers according to the information in this manual.
Jeopardising the Therapy Goal Due to Incorrectly Filed System Stirrup
Do not file the system stirrup too far. This applies especially to the dorsiflexion stop, as otherwise the
forefoot lever will not be activated. As a result, the patient is only stabilised insufficiently by the orthosis
and the gait worsens. In order to avoid this, always file the system stirrup:
- gradually up to the required stop angles and
- only so far that no more than a 10° fine adjustment is possible.
Limitation of the Joint Function Due to Improper Processing
Errors in processing can impair the joint function. Pay particular attention to:
- correctly connecting the system side bar/system anchor with the system case in accordance with the
production technique;
- greasing the joint components only slightly and
- adhering to the maintenance intervals.
Breakage of System Components Due to Predetermined Breaking Point at the System Stirrup
If you need to file the system stirrup, note all information provided in this manual in order to avoid
predetermined breaking points. File the system stirrup along the laser lines.
