How to use

Unfasten all straps. Slide the brace onto your knee, ensuring the open patella buttress is centered around your kneecap. The polycentric hinges should align with the sides of your knee joint. — Position the Brace
Fasten the bottom straps first, then the middle, and finally the top straps. Adjust each strap for a snug, comfortable fit that provides support without cutting off circulation. Ensure the cross straps are securely fastened. — Secure the Straps
Ensure the brace feels supportive and stable. It should not slip down your leg during movement. The hinges should allow for a natural range of motion. If any part feels too tight or causes irritation, readjust the straps. — Check for Fit and Comfort
