1) Bring the forearm into neutral position (no outward
or inward rotation).
2) Affix the cable guide to the socket with cap screws
(centred in relation to the strap clamp and approx.
30 mm away from the lamination ring).
CAUTION! The pull cable is to be used for
emergency operation only. For safety reasons,
it must not be removed!
3) Rotate the socket in and out up to the stop. Ensure
that the pull cable does not tighten.

2) Secure the end of the switch cable with a knot.
3) Tighten the switch cable and make a loop.
1) The level of compensation (flexion assistance) can
be adjusted and adapted to the weight of different
clothing with the AFB dial. Adjustments are easier
to make when the forearm is not flexed.
2) The adjustment mechanism is protected by a slip
coupling.
3) Hydrodynamic damping of the AFB mechanism is
designed to counterbalance the weight of the fore­
arm and terminal device. Therefore hold the upper
arm section of the prosthesis while testing the joint
function.
