Cleaning / disinfection Instructions

The SPL 2 Joint may not be greased, oiled or in any other way lubricated. When cleaned, please use

Naphtha (no acetone, dilutions or turpentine, etc.) or some similar cleaning fluids or compressed air.

Maintenance Instructions

Maintenance cycles depend strongly on the patients activity level. At a moderate activity level,

the Joints must be checked / serviced every 6 months. When doing this, attention must be paid to

wear and tear, Joint play and damages. If the Joint is no longer running freely, a thorough service is

recommended.

If the Joint has been, due to circumstances, extremely heavily loaded in a flexed position e.g.

with stumbling, tripping or walking (falling) down the staircase, the Joint has to be inspected

by the Orthotist. In case the patient constantly walks with a slightly flexed knee or regularly usage

the safety stops, adjustment of the extension position towards flexion is absolutely necessary.

Constructional guidelines

Orthosis construction

Measuring

Casting must be done with a fully, in neutral, extended leg. Stretching however should be possible

without to much effort to allow full extension (needed to unlock the Joint) once the Orthosis is worn.

When the Alignment Unit is used (Art. nr. AK-100/AK-101) to construct the Orthosis, make sure the

square with the T-bar is placed horizontal in the Frontal Plane to keep the axis straight. Alignment

should be based on the plumb line to create a neutral baseline for the Function Unit.
