NOTICE! Misaligning the pin leads to damage during insertion in
the shuttle lock.

with the longitudinal axis of the residual limb.
3) Roll the liner over the residual limb.
4) Check the fit of the liner and the alignment of the pin.

caused by the magnet and the ratchet unit can be heard. These
noises do not indicate whether the pin is fully engaged in the
ratchet unit.
