5 Preparation for use

5.1 Information on fabrication of a prosthesis
CAUTION
Incorrect alignment, assembly or adjustment
Injuries due to incorrectly installed or adjusted as well as damaged prosthetic components
► Observe the alignment, assembly and adjustment instructions.
CAUTION
Initial use of the prosthesis by the patient
Fall due to lack of patient experience, incorrect alignment or incorrect adjustment of the pros­
thesis
► For the safety of the patient, use a suitable device (e.g. parallel bars, handrail) during initial
standing and walking.
► Do not use devices with insufficient stability (e.g. crutches or walking sticks).
Fabricating a prosthesis that is optimally tailored to the patient demands technical knowledge of
orthopaedic technology. The alignment and adjustments may only be carried out by a prosthetist.
The alignment and adjustments are mainly completed in the following steps:
1. Bench alignment
2. Static alignment
3. Dynamic trial fitting
These steps are first carried out with a test prosthesis in order to determine the best possible
combination and positioning of the prosthetic components relative to each other. Once all set­
tings have been tailored to the patient, the definitive prosthesis is produced. The same steps are
repeated for this purpose.
In dynamic trial fitting, the patient must be given sufficient time to become familiar with the func­
tions of the prosthesis, thereby learning safe use for everyday life.
5.2 Information on Using a Cosmetic Cover
CAUTION
Use of talcum
Risk of injury, damage to the product due to lack of lubrication
► Do not use talcum on the product or other prosthesis components.
► Only use the foam cover approved by the manufacturer (see section "Combination Possibilit­
ies" – see Page 20).
