FIOR & GENTZ NEURO LOCK H2O Notice D'utilisation page 19

Risk of Falling Due to Loosening of the Bearing Nuts
Secure the screws of the bearing nuts with the specified torque and the corresponding adhesive and make
sure that no sliding washers are damaged in the process.
Risk of Falling Due to Permanent Higher Load
If patient data has changed (e.g. due to weight gain, growth or increased activity), recalculate the load
capacity of the system joint. For this purpose, use the Orthosis Configurator or contact Technical Support.
Risk of Falling Due to Improper Shoe/Wrong Shoe Pitch
Advise the patient to wear a shoe to which the orthosis is adjusted in order to avoid joint dysfunction.
Risk of Falling Due to Greased Locking Parts
Grease the system joint only slightly. Make sure that no grease enters between locking pawl and joint's
lower part.
Risk of Falling Due to Play in the System Joint
In order to achieve a lock function that is free of play, mount the system joint as described in these
instructions for use. Check in particular if the system joint locks without play. Correct play by using the
precisely adjustable extension stop or exchange the locking pawl, if necessary.
Risk of Falling Due to Insufficient Rigidity of the Orthosis
Ensure sufficient rigidity of the orthosis shells during the construction of the orthosis in order to prevent it
from bending or distorting over time and thus impairing the lock function.
Damage to the Anatomical Joint Due to Incorrect Position of the Joint's Mechanical Pivot Point
Determine the joint's mechanical pivot points correctly in order to avoid a permanent incorrect load on the
anatomical joint. Please refer to the online tutorials on our website or contact Technical Support.
