5 Preparation for Use

CAUTION
Incorrect alignment, assembly or adjustment
Injuries due to incorrectly installed or adjusted as well as damaged prosthetic components
► Observe the alignment, assembly and adjustment instructions.

5.1 Information on use

CAUTION
Using the prosthetic foot without a shoe
Falling due to lack of surface grip
► Always use the prosthetic foot with a shoe.
INFORMATION
The prosthetic foot has no footshell
The chosen shoe is pulled directly over the prosthetic foot. The forefoot pad on the prosthetic
foot prevents sliding and cushions the shoe.
5.1.1 Shoe selection
INFORMATION
The prosthetic foot is not suitable for all shoes. If the upper on the shoe is too high, the posterior
projection of the prosthetic foot spring pushes on the upper. The shoe can be damaged as a
result.
► Select shoes where the posterior projection of the prosthetic foot spring does not push on
the upper of the shoe.

5.1.2 Use in water

The prosthetic foot may come into contact with water, for example, when jogging on the beach or
when swimming.
1) NOTICE! Always use the prosthetic foot with a shoe when in water. Otherwise, the
heel wedge may be lost.
Before water contact: Check the firm fit of the shoe.
2) After water contact: Clean the prosthetic foot (see Page 14).
5.2 Alignment
INFORMATION
There is a plastic adapter cover on the proximal connection of the prosthetic foot. This protects
the connecting section from scratches during the alignment and trial fitting.
► Remove the adapter cover before the patient leaves the workshop/fitting area.
