10.3 Positioning the
Sandals
To position the user's feet in the sandals,
secure the Velcro straps provided so the foot
is held in place. The straps should be placed
over the bridge of the foot over the toes.
The front strap can be fed through one
of two slots on either side of the sandals,
depending on the size of the user's feet (2).
If the child is wearing sandals or light
footwear check the straps to make sure
the webbing does not irritate the skin.

10.4 Knee Straps
To attach the knee straps insert the plastic
clip (a) into the buckle (b) on the side of the
main knee support. Then grab the straps
ends (c) and pull firmly away from the user,
which will secure the strap around the user's
leg. To remove the strap, simply squeeze the
tabs on the top and bottom of the plastic clip
and the strap will pop off.
Always check with your therapist as to the
correct tensioning of the straps for your
child as the kneecap is a sensitive area
and too much force could cause injury.
