+ = anterior placement / – = posterior placement (in relation to the alignment reference line)
No. see fig. 8
INFORMATION: If the length-adjustable 2R45=34 Tube Adapter (max. body weight 125 kg)
is used in the alignment of the test prosthesis, the required length for the definitive pros­
thesis is easier to determine.
When using the included tube adapter, note the section "Adapting the Length of the Tube
Adapter" (see Page 31).
Connect the prosthetic knee joint to the prosthetic foot and chosen adapters according to their
instructions for use and the section "Installing the Tube Adapter" (see Page 32).
Position the 743A80 50:50 Gauge on the lateral side of the prosthetic socket and mark a point
respectively in the distal and proximal area.
Using these points, mark the lateral centre line of the prosthetic socket.
Mark the tuberosity height as the tuberosity reference point
Clearly mark the lateral socket reference point

Position the tuberosity reference point
floor measurement.
CAUTION! The correct position and flexion of the prosthetic socket is crucial for the
safety of the patient and functionality of the prosthetic knee joint, and avoids premature
wear.
INFORMATION: The 4R118 Adapter Plate (max. body weight 125 kg) can be used for fur­
ther posterior placement.
Position the prosthetic socket so the lateral socket reference point
reference line
Adjust the socket flexion angle β depending on the hip flexion contracture (angle α) according to
the following specifications:
If the angle α = 0°, the optimum value of the angle β = 3 to 5° to the alignment reference line.
If the angle α > 0°, the optimum value of the angle β = α + 5 to 10°.
To fabricate the prosthetic socket for the 3R62=KD, observe the section "Fabricating the Pros­
thetic Socket" (see Page 33).
Position the lamination anchor or socket adapter so that all prosthetic components between the
socket and prosthetic knee joint can be connected to each other correctly.
Join the prosthetic socket and the prosthetic knee joint using the adapters you selected.
Be sure to follow the adapter instructions for use during adjustment and installation.
Position the 743A80 50:50 Gauge on the anterior side of the prosthetic socket and mark a point in
the distal and proximal areas, respectively.
Using these points, mark the anterior centre line of the prosthetic socket.
Clearly mark the anterior socket reference point

Adjust the socket flexion angle γ according to the patient's adduction angle.
5.5.1 Shortening the Tube Adapter
CAUTION
Incorrect processing of tube
Fall due to damage to the tube
► Do not clamp the tube into a vice.
► For shortening the tube, use only a tube cutter.
