Legs. The legs are constructed with metal reinforced plastic bones cover with PVC skinned foam parts that represent the upper and lower flesh. The knee joints can be locked in any position. This feature can be used to facilitate positioning the dummy in a standing position. (Note that the dummy does not have the ability to stand without external support.) The Q0 legs have a simplified layout with one integral part per leg with a fixed angle at the knee.
Legs. The upper legs of the driver test dummy shall rest against the seat cushion to the extent permitted by placement of the feet. The initial distance between the outboard knee clevis flange surfaces shall be 270 mm ± 10 mm. To the extent practicable, the left leg of the driver dummy shall be in vertical longitudinal planes. To the extent practicable, the right leg of the driver dummy shall be in a vertical plane. Final adjustment to accommodate placement of feet in accordance with paragraph 2.6. for various passenger compartment configurations is permitted.
Legs. The upper legs of the passenger test dummy shall rest against the seat cushion to the extent permitted by placement of the feet. The initial distance between the outboard knee clevis flange surfaces shall be 229 mm ± 5 mm as shown in Figure 2. To the extent practicable, both legs of the passenger dummy shall be in vertical longitudinal planes. Final adjustment to accommodate placement of feet in accordance with paragraph 3.6. for various passenger compartment configurations is permitted.

Legs. The correctly cut legs are separated from the thighs through ---- the knuckle of the knee joint (Femorotial and Patellar joint). The proper leg cut will be indicated by the exposed red bone marrow resembling a figure "8" or "H" shape on the drums. All tendons should be connected to the joint. The cut should not exceed [*] past the white cartilage line toward the thigh and should not be short of the white cartilage line.
Legs. 2.10.1. The legs are shown as part No. 10 in figure 1 of this annex.
