3. סעטאַפּ און אַפּליקאַציע

Follow these steps to correctly apply your Ossur Formfit Tracker Knee Brace:

1. פּאַזישאַנינג: Sit or stand with your leg slightly bent. Slide the brace onto your leg, ensuring the patella opening is centered over your kneecap. The brace should be positioned so that the ReflexWing™ buttress comfortably cradles the patella.
2. Secure Lower Straps: Fasten the lower straps first. Pull them firmly but not uncomfortably tight, securing the hook-and-loop closures.
3. Secure Upper Straps: Fasten the upper straps, ensuring they are snug around your thigh. The Powerlock Straps are designed for secure lateral support and should provide a firm, yet comfortable, compression.
4. Adjust CustomFit™ Hinges: The CustomFit™ bars (or hinges) on the sides provide customized fit and support. Ensure they align with the natural movement of your knee. Adjust the straps to achieve even compression and stability without restricting circulation.
5. קוק פֿאַר טרייסט: Stand up and bend your knee a few times to ensure the brace moves with you and does not pinch or rub. Readjust straps as needed. The Anti-Migration Tech™ helps minimize brace movement during activities.

If you encounter issues with your Formfit Tracker Knee Brace, consider the following:

• Discomfort or Pinching: This often indicates incorrect sizing or improper application. Re-measure your leg and consult the size chart. Ensure the brace is centered and straps are tightened evenly without over-tightening.
• Brace Slipping: If the brace slides down during activity, it may be too loose or the wrong size. Ensure all straps are securely fastened and consider if a smaller size might be more appropriate. The Anti-Migration Tech™ is designed to minimize slipping, but proper fit is essential.
• Strap Durability: Over time, hook-and-loop closures may lose effectiveness. Ensure they are kept clean and free of lint. If straps become significantly worn or damaged, contact Ossur customer support for assistance.
• Insufficient Support: Verify that the brace is correctly positioned and all straps are tightened to provide adequate compression. If the issue persists, consult a healthcare professional to ensure the brace is appropriate for your specific condition.
