Runway® HX Instruction for Use
Product Number: RS2-K1
The Runway® HX is a carbon fiber adjustable heel height prosthetic foot. Its anatomical
gliding ankle maintains appropriate foot alignment to provide knee stability and consistent
performance at all heel heights. The Runway® carbon fiber material stores and returns
energy so that users can walk farther, faster, longer. The Runway® fiber layers are tailored
to an individual's body weight and impact level, providing a customized product for superior
comfort.
Prior to donning the prosthesis:
• Plantarflex/Dorsiflexion foot to match the shoe heel height. (See Operation Section)
• Adduct/Abduct socket to provide appropriate frontal plane angle.
• Flex/Extend socket to provide appropriate sagittal plane angle.
• Move the socket to ensure the weight line falls along the anterior edge of the pylon (see
illustration).
Weight Line
To optimize the heel to toe rollover motion, adjust the following variables:
• Anterior/posterior foot placement
• Dorsiflexion/plantarflexion
• Heel stiffness
Heel too soft
Heel too hard
Toe too stiff
Toe too soft
