SCIENTIFIC DESIGN
The Pneumatic Walker Boot provides maximum support and stability to the ankle and is light weight and durable. Its Rocker sole design promotes natural gait and the Front panel with inflated air cell provides for complete protection and support. It also helps in pressure offloading and enhances blood flow.
The Double air valve offers pneumatic compression to promote callus formation over fracture site and reduce swelling. Inflation can be customized to desired compression level with the air valve.
The detachable soft cushion provides comfortable perfect fit

• In a seating posture, place the foot in the foam liner and wrap it around the leg preventing the possibility of wrinkle formation
• Slip foot inside the walking boot, be sure to place heel close to the heel frame, and make sure the foot rest completely flat down in the brace. The foot should be 90° to the lower leg. There should not be a gap between heel and the shell
• To adjust the air cell pressure squeeze the blue bulb inflate to your comfort
• Adjust the air cell pressure by pressing the Pneumatic Push for Inflation

• Higher pressure gives more support while walking, lower pressure is more comfortable while sitting or reclining
• Do not over-inflate the air cells. Inflate until the brace is comfortable and securely fit

• Wipe shell with damp cloth.
• Allow liner to air dry completely before reapplying. Dry in shade on a flat surface.
