ATTACHING / DETACHING THE CALF LOOPS
Calf Loops: Why use them?
Calf Loops are an optional feature that are easily detachable (removing the calf loops may make the Gravity Boots more comfortable for shorter adults and children). Calf Loops provide the following
benets:
1. Reduce loads on the ankles and prevent the front edge of the boot from placing uncomfortable pressure on the top of your feet.
2. Place a 2° bend in the knees, which for most people is more comfortable than inverting with straight legs.
TO ATTACH CALF LOOPS:
Insert the base of the Calf Loop into the open end of the Boot Hook (Figure A). Make sure you hear the Calf Loop snap into place - this indicates secure attachment. Repeat on other boot.
TO DETACH CALF LOOPS:
A.
Press your nger onto the Calf Loop Release Tab (Figure B) and pull loop away from the Boot
Hook.
* Calf Loops must be attached/detached while the Gravity Boots are NOT being worn.
