Patient Guide

Fitting Instructions

1. To start, first sit down with your

knee bent to around 90°. Place

the brace on your leg with the

hinges on the side of your knee

so they point straight ahead. The

hinge should be in line with the

centre of your knee (picture 1).

2. Fasten the strap below the knee

first (A) feed the strap through

the slot and attach the hook

and loop strap (picture 2).

3. Next do the same with the

lowest strap (picture 3).

4. Next fasten the strap above

the knee (picture 4).

5. Lastly the top strap can be

fastened. All straps should feel

firm, yet comfortable (picture 5).

NOTE: Over tightening the top two

straps can cause the brace to slide

down the leg. The orthosis needs

to be fastened from the outside to

prevent the rotation of the orthosis

on the leg.

Removing the Flex

• When removing the brace, undo

each strap and ensure to attach

the hook and loop tab back

onto the strap. This will make

it easier when fitting the brace

next time and will prolong the

life of the straps (picture 6).

Flex®

It is important that the

brace is fitted correctly to

ensure adequate support of

your knee and also optimal

comfort. The Flex knee brace

should be applied according

to the instructions from the

supplying clinician. This fitting

guide serves as a reminder to

compliment their instructions.
