Mounting the Lever Extension

The lever extension is used for an easy unlocking of the system knee joint. The adhesive set (fig. 2) for adhering
the lever extension consists of a 2-component adhesive and a primer. It is included in the scope of delivery of
the system joint and can be reordered separately.
Unilateral Construction
1 Adapt the lever extension to the shape of the orthosis and shorten it, if neces-
sary.
2 Apply a thin layer of primer on the shoulder of the lever extension and in
the bore of the locking pawl by using the cotton swab from the adhesive set
(fig. 16).
3 Allow the primer to flash off for 10 minutes.
4 Inject a sufficient amount of the 2-component adhesive into the bore of the
locking pawl by using the set's dual-chamber syringe.
5 Stick the lever extension into the bore (fig. 17).
6 Let the adhesive dry for 24 hours until the final strength is reached.
