Wrap the cotton calf and thigh pads tightly around the leg and fasten at the front.
First attach the lateral (outside) bar to the pad. Make sure that the brace joint is level with the patella and the midline of the knee.
Now attach the medial (inside) bar in the same way. Make sure that the two joints are at the same level.
First fasten the upper calf strap, then the lower thigh strap. Now fasten the other straps, starting with the bottom one and working upwards.
To take the orthosis off just open the straps and pads and pull the orthosis backwards.
