3.6.2 Tibial Aligner Technique
The following section describes an alternate technique
for positioning the Tibial Adjustment Mechanism on
the tibia using the Tibial Aligner rather than the Tibial
Positioner.
Warning: After wrapping/preparing the ankle,
the surgeon should still be able to palpate the
malleoli.
Instruments Assembly
1. For a left knee procedure, clip the
“Reference” Pod to the back receptacle
of the Tibial Left Adjustment Mechanism.
For a right knee procedure, clip the “Reference”
Pod to the back receptable of the Tibial Right
Adjustment Mechanism.
2. Clip the “Cut Guide” Pod to the Tibial Alignment
Guide.
3. Assemble the Tibial Aligner by aligning the

and the Tibial Aligner Lower Assembly.
Note: If desired, the Tibial Aligner can be used
without the upper assembly.

Mechanism.
