The centre of the brace joint between the two lateral joint splints is now sitting around the same level as the upper edge of the kneecap.\u003cbr\u003ePlease make sure that the brace has been placed on the leg straight and is not twisted. \u003cbr\u003eNow close both of the hook and loop fastener on the upper part of the brace. \u003cbr\u003eFasten the quick-release clasp for strap 1 first and then fasten the quick-release clasp for strap 2.\u003cbr\u003eNow fasten straps 3 and 4. \u003cbr\u003ePush and\/or pull the load relief mechanism up or down, moving along the increasing number scale. (Attention: To reduce pressure, the lock needs to be released and then refastened after setting). An audible click is heard for every change in level to show that the brace has engaged. The greatest level of load relief is attained at level 9. The orthopaedic technician has set the brace in advance and has established a benchmark value with you. Depending on your level of pain, you can adjust the mechanism to fit your needs.\u003cbr\u003eTake a few steps and ensure that the brace is sitting correctly on the leg. If necessary, correct the position of the brace again. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaking the brace off:\u003cbr\u003eDeactivate the load relief mechanism by releasing the switch and pushing the mechanism towards the knee joint. \u003cbr\u003eThen set the switch back to the white dot.\u003cbr\u003eUndo all of the quick-release clasps.  \u003cbr\u003eOpen the hook and loop fastener on the brace and pull it off your leg, moving downwards. \u003cbr\u003eClose the hook and loop fastener and all quick-release clasps to ensure that no damage is done to the brace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSizing Chart \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/images.medi.de\/EN\/orthopaedics\/pictures\/for-online\/size-charts\/medi-soft-oa-light-size-chart-m-244451.jpeg\" alt=\"medi Soft OA size chart\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Medi Canada","offers":[{"title":"XS","offer_id":50798348206247,"sku":null,"price":1299.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"S","offer_id":50798348239015,"sku":null,"price":1299.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"M","offer_id":50798348271783,"sku":null,"price":1299.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"L","offer_id":50798348304551,"sku":null,"price":1299.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"XL","offer_id":50798348337319,"sku":null,"price":1299.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2XL","offer_id":50798348370087,"sku":null,"price":1299.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0657\/6272\/1959\/files\/medi-Soft-OA-CA-1877-freischw-Freisteller_232285_1.tif-Product-lifestyle-1to1.jpg?v=1780711291","url":"https:\/\/canadianmedicalstore.ca\/products\/medi-soft-oa","provider":"Canadian Medical Store ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
