5.2 Shortening the tube adapter
CAUTION
Risk of material damage due to deformation
The tube may not be clamped in a vise while working on it.
INFORMATION
The cut must be perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the tube (see Fig. 2).
The tube adapter must be shortened according to the patient's measure-
ments. Special care must be taken to ensure that the tube is not deformed.
A deformed tube cannot be fit easily into the tube clamp adapter.
We recommend using the 719R2 Tube Cutter or a similar tool.
1) Use the tube cutter to shorten the tube adapter to fit the patient's meas-
urements.
2) Deburr the inside and outside of the cut edge using the 718R1 tube
deburring tool (see Fig. 3) or a similar tool.
3) Loosen the tube clamp adapter cylinder head screw by approx. 2 turns.
4) Slide the tube 5 mm into the tube clamp adapter while turning it slightly.
5) Slide the tube adapter into the tube clamp adapter until the tube rests
against the bottom of the collar.
5.3 Adjustment
NOTICE
Risk of corrosion
The cylinder head screw and the set screws are protected against cor-
rosion and may only be replaced with set screws from the 4D27 single-
component pack.
The four set screws can be used to make static adjustments at any time
during alignment, trial fittings, and even after the prosthesis is finished. The
previously adjusted position can be maintained if a module is replaced or
during disassembly, if only the two set screws which are located beside
one another and turned in the furthest are removed.
