Finger adduction By spreading the fingers, a flat, thin object (< 3 mm/< 0.12 inch) can be held between the finger joints when closing the hand. Spreading the fingers is most effective with the power grip. It can also be used with the key grip and finger point. This grip cannot be selected in the adjustment software.
Page 6
Grips with the thumb in the lateral position (the thumb is sideways to the palm) Column grip The thumb closes towards the palm, then the remaining fingers bend over the thumb. In doing so, the thumb blocks the closing movement of the index finger and lets it protrude beyond the other three fingers.
Page 7
Relaxed hand position The thumb is in the lateral position and closes partway towards the palm. All fingers assume a slightly flexed position. When the close signal is repeated, the fingers move to form the hook grip. Application examples: this grip is recommended when the hand is not being actively used.
