Installing The Modules - Ottobock 17AD100 Serie Instrucciones De Uso

6.3 Installing the modules

INFORMATION
Ottobock recommends checking the alignment of the orthosis using the
L.A.S.A.R. Posture or L.A.S.A.R. Posture 3D and adapting it as needed.
► We recommend positioning the sagittal load line approx.15 mm in front
of the knee compromise pivot point according to Nietert (see fig. 3, see
fig. 4).
Thanks to the individual options for combining the specific modules with one
another, the system ankle joint can be adjusted to needs of the patient. The
adjustment of the alignment can be controlled via the angle adjustment of the
system ankle joint. The angle adjustment can be set via the screw depth of
the 17AD100A=AS*, 17AD100A=LS* setscrews and the 17AD100A=HS*
stop pin.
INFORMATION
Bilateral design of the orthosis
Ensure that the forces (e.g. compression spring force) are evenly distrib­
uted for the patient-specific setting.
6.3.1 Installing the Stop-module
Required materials: 17AD100A=MA* mounting adapter, torque wrench
>
with bit, Torx wrench, 636K13 Loctite 241

1) Insert the threaded hole (see fig. 5, item 3) through the black cover from
above.
2) Screw the threaded hole with cover into the basic piece from above (see
fig. 15).
3) Place the mounting adapter on the threaded hole and tighten it with a
torque wrench. Observe the specified torque (see fig. 11).
4) Insert the stop sleeve (item 2) into the threaded hole with the curve
pointing towards the foot stirrup (see fig. 16).
5) Screw the setscrew (item 1) into the threaded hole with a Torx wrench
and adjust the stop for the patient (see fig. 17). Secure with Loctite 241;
observe the angle adjustment of the ankle joint.
See the illustration of the 17AD100A=AS* stop module for the correspond­
ing wrench sizes and tightening torque values (see fig. 5).
