← Fitting instructions

The pictures that go with the fitting instructions
can be found on the inside cover (2) at the start
of the brochure.
1
To put the knee orthosis on, open the Velcro straps
on the rounded end and pull them out of the eyelet.
When putting the orthosis on, please be aware that
it gets narrower at the lower end. Put the orthosis
against the front of your slightly bent leg. It is
correctly positioned if the centre of the joint is in line
with the lower edge of the kneecap.
2
Ensure that you close the Velcro straps in the right
order. Close the upper strap on the back of the lower
leg first (1) by inserting it through the eyelet provided
and fastening it tightly. Then close the lower strap on
the back of the thigh (2) and then the lower one on
the back of the lower leg (3).
3
Then close the front Velcro straps on the shin (4) and
the thigh (5) and finally the upper strap on the back
of the thigh (6). Ensure that the product is secure but
not too tight so as to prevent pinching.

Intended Use

The Dynamics Knee Orthosis Classic
relieves your knee after injuries or operations.

adjusted.
