WARNING: Make sure you attach the injection valve correctly. If the injection valve is not in the injection channel,
the resin will erupt when you inject it. Resin eruption can cause safety risks.
Taping Ring
Use the screws to attach the taping ring to the distal connector (Fig. 6).
Liner for Casting
1. Roll on the liner used for casting (Fig. 7).
2. Use the lanyard cord to examine soft tissue stabilization (Fig. 8). If you are not sure, try a casting liner one size
above or below.
Distal Attachment Pin
1. Turn the distal attachment pin into the liner umbrella.
2. Make sure the pin and umbrella are correctly aligned with the patient's limb (Fig. 9).
Using the Plastic Protection Sheet
You need to put some of the plastic protection sheet under the liner to protect the patient. Do as follows:
1. Make a hole in the middle of the plastic protection sheet.
2. Roll 1/3 of the liner down.
3. Pull the plastic protection sheet up over the residual limb (Fig. 10).
4. Roll the liner up over the plastic protection sheet.
Silicone Insulation Sheet, First Layer
1. Roll the first length of silicone insulation sheet over the casting liner (Fig. 11).
NOTICE: The textile layer must be on the inner side. If it is not on the inner side, you will laminate the socket to
the silicone insulation sheet.
2. Make sure to pull the silicone insulation sheet over the plastic protection sheet (Fig. 12).
3. Use the sheet straps to keep the silicone insulation sheet in position during socket production (Fig. 13).
Using the Brim
1. Measure the circumference 1–2 cm (0.4" to 0.8") below the level of the perineum (Fig. 14).
2. Select the correct brim size from the table below.
NOTE: If the circumference is between two sizes, select the larger size. If you will put the brim high on the
lateral side, think of selecting one size larger.
