Fabricating the pelvic socket (
CAUTION
Failure to observe instructions regarding the lamination plate
and pelvic socket
Risk of falling due to breakage or deformation of the lamination plate
and pelvic socket
► Follow all instructions in this sectoin when manufacturing the
pelvic socket.
► Do not modify the lamination plate (e.g. by shortening or bend­
ing).
► Note that the section "Reuse and service life" also applies to the
lamination plate.
► Manufacture the pelvic socket using the lamination plate in such a
way as to ensure safe use with respect to the patient's body
weight and level of activity.
1) Before laminating, close the threaded holes in the lamination plate
with 636K6 plasticine.
2) : For reinforcement, thread 699B1 fibreglass roving through the
bores in the lamination plate and leave an overhang of about 4
cm.
3) : Reinforce the pelvic socket in the area of the lamination plate
using 616G12 carbon fibre cloth (up to three layers, depending
on the weight and height of the patient).
Installing the tube adapter (
CAUTION
Incorrect processing of tube
Fall due to damage to the tube
► Do not clamp the tube into a vice.
► To shorten the tube, use only a tube cutter or a cutting device.

CAUTION
Incorrect mounting of the tube
Risk of injury due to breakage of load-bearing components
► Slide the tube all the way to the stop in the intended prosthetic
component when mounting.
CAUTION
Improper assembly of the screw connections
Risk of injury due to breakage or loosening of the screw connec­
tions
► Clean the threads before every installation.
► Apply the specified torque values.
► Follow the instructions regarding the length of the screws and
about how to secure the screws.
► Use the smallest value for the allowable insertion depth as the
minimum insertion depth.
→ : Allowable insertion depth: 0 mm
→ : Unallowable insertion depth: > 0 mm
Product adjustment options
► If necessary, use the adjustment options shown in illustrations
5
( on page 6 – : adjustable extension stop;
: rotation in the axis of the tube;
tion/adduction).
7.3 Optimising the static alignment
► To optimise the static alignment, position the patient on the meas­
uring device.
► In the sagittal plane, check the course of the load line relative to
the marked alignment reference point and correct this if needed
