FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
For best therapeutic results considering different pathol-
ogies and to extend the useful life of the product, it is es-
sential to choose the correct size for each patient or user.
Excessive compression may be intolerable; adjusting the
compression to be firm yet comfortable is recommended.
If the product must be adapted, any such adjustments
must be done by an orthopaedic specialist or healthcare
professional legally certified to do so who must make sure
the end user or person responsible for fitting the product
properly understands how it works and should be used.
When fitting the product, you must adhere to the
following instructions:
Wearing lightweight clothing underneath the brace can
improve comfort.
A Fitting the brace to the patient:
A.1. Adjusting the metal plate.
1-Peel off the micro hook closure of the lower textile com-
ponent of the rear area.
2-Separate both components, removing the metal plate
inside the lower component.
3-Remove the closure in a micro-hook that fixes the plate
to the upper textile component to access the complete
metal plate.
4-With the patient standing and looking forwards, po-
sition the stabiliser plate on the patient's back so that
the upper edge is approximately 4 cm below C7 and the
lower edge is at the level of the coccyx.
5-If it is necessary to adjust the height of the plate, remove
the 4 screws with a 2.5 mm Allen key, slide both pieces
to the desired height and re-fix all of the screws to the
ends of the upper and lower plates.
6-Adjust the plate to the anatomical shape of the patient's
spine beginning with the lumbar lordosis. It is not nec-
essary to use tools for this process.
7-Once the adaptation of the metal plate has been com-
pleted, you must insert it into the upper textile compo-
nent and close the respective micro-hook.
8-Insert the lower part of the plate into the lower textile
component and close the respective micro-hook.
A.2. Adjusting the straps.
1-After closing the brace in the abdominal area, begin
by adjusting the tension and length of the 4 straps
that connect this part to the rear plate. Special atten-
tion should be paid to the lower straps, which should
be tight. To adjust the length of the straps, release the
Velcro fasteners fixed to their ends, trim the straps to the
desired length and reattach the fasteners.
2-With the patient standing and looking forwards, adjust
the tension and length of the 2 shoulder straps in order
obtain a correct posture when they are fixed to the ab-
dominal area.

A.3. Adjusting the armpit protectors.
1-To move the armpit protectors, detach the 2 Velcro fas-
teners on their ends and move the protectors until they
are in contact with the front area of the shoulder and
the armpit area to prevent discomfort from rubbing.
2-After situating them correctly, fix their position with the
Velcro fasteners on the ends.
B Placement of the brace by the patient:
After the orthopaedic technician has carried out the
fitting, it will not be necessary to move the positions
of the straps. For the placement of the brace, only the
abdominal closure needs to be handled.
1-With the abdominal closure open, insert the arms
through the openings of the shoulder straps, as if it were
a backpack.
2-Insert the fingers into the respective loops on the left
and right-hand sides of the closure.
3-Press the left-hand side of the closure on the abdomen
and pull the right-hand side until the Velcro can be
closed.
4-To close the Velcro, firstly remove the fingers from the
left-hand loop and then from the right-hand loop.
