STEP 3
LOWER LEG HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
A. Loosen Clamp Nut (8b)
B. Check height – For rst time use, proper height is when center of pad,
at back edge of Knee Platform (12), aligns ½ to 1”below bottom of your
knee cap. Note – slightly too low is better than too high.
C. Adjust height by pressing in the two spring heads. Grasp foot and ro-
tate slightly while pushing up to shorten or pulling down to lengthen.
Repeat until correct height is achieved.
Note – After you have basic prociency walking, you will readjust height
to have equal leg length.
Before putting
weight on the
crutch, make certain
that both spring heads
are fully engaged
(“popped out”) in the
adjustment holes. Then
tighten the Clamp Bolt.
Failure to do so could
result in a fall and / or
injury.
