4. Operating Instructions
Follow these steps to effectively use the JFMkaer Compression Sock Aid Device:
- Prepare the Device: Place the sock aid device on a stable surface, such as the floor or a low table. Ensure the handles are extended to a comfortable height if you are standing, or folded if you prefer to use it while seated.
- Load the Sock (Step 1): Gather your compression sock and, using the provided donning gloves, stretch the sock over the hard plastic sock puller. Pull the sock down until the heel pocket is aligned with the curved part of the device, and the toe of the sock is at the bottom. The sock should be inverted over the device.
- Position Your Foot (Step 2): While seated or standing, carefully insert your toes into the opening of the sock. Ensure your foot is centered.
- Pull the Sock On (Step 3): Using the handles, gently pull the device upwards, guiding your foot into the sock. As you pull, the sock will slide smoothly onto your foot and up your leg. Continue pulling until the sock is fully on your leg and the device can be easily removed.
- Adjust the Sock: Once the sock is on, use your hands (with gloves) to smooth out any wrinkles or bunched areas, ensuring a comfortable and proper fit.

5. Maintenance and Care
5.1 Cleaning
To clean the device, wipe it with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these may damage the plastic. Ensure the device is completely dry before storing.
5.2 Storage
When not in use, fold the handles inward for compact storage. Store the device in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prolong its lifespan.
6. Troubleshooting
- Difficulty Loading the Sock: Ensure the sock is fully inverted over the device and the heel pocket is correctly aligned. Use the donning gloves to get a better grip on the sock material.
- Sock Not Sliding Up Easily: Verify that your calf circumference is within the recommended 16-inch limit. If the sock is too tight for the device, it may not slide smoothly. Ensure your foot is pointed and relaxed when inserting it.
- Device Feels Unstable: Ensure the device is placed on a flat, stable surface. If using while standing, maintain balance and use the handles for support, not as a primary balance aid.
- Cracking Sounds or Damage: If you hear cracking sounds or notice any damage, discontinue use immediately. This may indicate stress on the plastic components.
