Otto Bock C2000 Service Instructions Manual page 41

The Bowden cables are normally adjusted on the wheel lock release housing. If the correct set-
ting cannot be obtained by means of the adjustment screw, the threaded rod on the other end
of the Bowden cable can be moved by approximately 5 - 8 mm on the drive motor side. Sub-
sequently, the wheel lock release must be completely readjusted. When making adjustments
for the first time (e.g. cable replacement), the Bowden cable should have very little play before
adjusting it.
INfORMATION
Lock the adjustment screw every time the setting is changed. Otto Bock recommends making adjust-
ments in small increments (½ turn).
