rather then re-bent.
Cut the padding (G) to the required
length and attach it with the hook and
loop strip. Tighten the chassis screws (H).
Adjusting the extension pads
After loosening the screws you can
adjust the height of the extension pads
(D) and the lateral angle. Please ensure
that the central chassis (A) does not
come into contact with the sternum.
Adjusting the lower angle
Loosen the two screws (E). Adjust the
angle to position the symphysis pad (F)
to suit the body contours. Please ensure
that the symphysis pad is not too low to
allow the patient to sit upright. Now
tighten both screws.

Closing the buckle
Fold back the buckles of both closers.
Push both ends of the straps into the clip
openings from the back until they
emerge from the front. Opening the
clasp to 90 degrees and closing it draws
the strap in and it can easily move into
hyperextension. Caution: Do not close
the belt by force! On reaching the
desired final position, press both buckles
closed. The strap can be shortened using
scissors. In this case, please smoothen
off the ends of the belt. Only one buckle
needs to be folded back to remove the
brace.
Caution: Do not bend the buckle too
far! The belt can now be simply pulled out.

Setting belt length
Adjust the belt length with the hook and
loop fastener and the guide loop so that
the compression pad sits in the middle
of the back. Please ensure that the grip
fastener pulls in about 5 cm of the belt.
Cut the side padding of the compression
pad to fit. Please ensure that the
padding of the compression pad and
that of the side section do not overlap.
Closing the cliplock
Fold the buckle back and press it
downwards. The closer is now fixed.
Please ensure that the clip has been fully
pushed down.
You are recommended to check the
function of the medi 4C and make any
necessary adjustments on the day
after fitting. To make wearing more
comfortable we recommend the patient
wears a T-Shirt under the brace.
