Impact Guard Set Installation
Impact Guard (H) sets are available to protect the knee against impacts.
To install the Impact Guard set:
1. Carefully peel back the liners to expose the mounting tab locations on
the upper and lower brace frames (Fig. 23).
2. Place the Impact guard into the device, lining up the holes (Fig. 24).
3. Install the two T20 Torx mounting screws to secure the Impact guard
to the upper and lower brace frames (Fig. 25).
4. Reinstall the upper and lower liners.
To replace the Impact guard set Elastic Cord (I) (sold separately) or
reconnect the upper and lower panel of the guard set:
1. Fold the Elastic Cord into a loop (Fig. 26).
2. From the liner side of the upper guard, feed the loop through the
rightmost hook and pull snug (Fig. 27).
3. Weave the Elastic Cord through the hooks (Fig. 28). To attach to the
leftmost hook, loop the cord and pull through from the liner side.
4. Center the Elastic Cord (Fig. 29).
5. Feed both end loops through the holes on the lower guard (Fig. 30).
6. Hook the loop ends to the lower guard tabs (Fig. 31).
Device Removal
1. Sit down and bend the knee at an 80° angle with the foot flat on the floor.
2. Unfasten all posterior straps of the device and attach the straps back to
themselves. This will make it easier to put the device on next time and
will also prolong the life of the straps.
