4.2 Adjusting the device to
the patient
Note!
For the following adjustments, the
patient's arm should not yet be placed
on the armrest. After you have adjusted
the device to the approximate patient
measurements, the patient can place
his/her arm on the armrest for a check
of the setup and for the fine adjustment.
The settings are numbered 1 through
5. For easy orientation, you will find
the same numbers on the CPM device.
Always set up the CPM device in this
order.
Write the settings down on the back of
the patient's chip card.
Before you adjust the der
ARTROMOT®-S3 to the patient, you
may have to convert the device for use
on the left or right shoulder.
(see section 6.4 Conversion)
Before any treatment is possible, adjust the
device as follows:
Backrest, headrest,
shoulder restraint, armrest
Before you start setting up the device for
the exercise protocol, you must adjust it to
a position that is anatomically correct for
the respective patient.
• Open thumbscrew (10) and adjust the
backrest to a position that is comfort-
able for the patient. (Fig. F)
• In the next step adjust the head rest¹:
Height adjustment with locking screw
(32), headrest adjustment with locking
screw (30), fine adjustment with ball
joint (33).
• Use locking screw (31) to position the
shoulder restraint¹ approx. 1 cm above
the shoulders.
• Set the armrest for the healthy arm to
a height that allows the patient to sit up
straight (locking screw 14).
