(10), set the backrest to the foremost posi-
tion and tighten the screw.
To achieve optimal congruence between
the axis of motor A and the patient's
rotational axis of the elbow joint, the
backrest angle can be individually adjusted
in all other horizontal adduction/abduction
positions.
Checking the setup, fine
adjustment
Please check the following before using the
CPM device on a patient:
• Check settings 1 to 6 and make sure that
the pivot of motor A agrees with the
pivot of the elbow joint, i.e., that the axis
of motor B vertically passes through the
elbow joint.
• Check that all locking screws and
clamping levers are tight.
4.2.2 Adjusting the
ARTROMOT®-E2 compact
to the patient
Note: The individual steps are illustrated
on page XI.
Note: Step 1 does not exist for the
ARTROMOT®-E2 compact.
; Height adjustment (Fig. A)
Before opening locking screw (1), hold the
moving part of the CPM device by grasping
motor A (11), to prevent the part from fall-
ing down.
• Open screw (1) and set the motion ele-
ment to the appropriate height. Ensure
that the entire upper arm lies on the
support (20). The patient should sit up
straight and be relaxed.
• Tighten screw (1).
• Now check the agreement of the axis of
motor A and the elbow joint. If required,
make a fine adjustment of the vertical
orientation, using locking pin (26).

Patient hazard / equipment damage –
Hold motor B for this adjustment to
secure the device.
• Hold the motion element at bracket (27).
• Now open screw (2) and set the appro-
priate angle.
• Tighten screw (2).

Patient hazard / equipment damage –
Hold motor B for this adjustment to
secure the device.
• Open the cam lever (3) and set the
appropriate length. Make sure that the
slider (4) is free to move at least 2 cm in
either direction. There must be enough
space for the fingers between the hand
support and motor B.
• Tighten the cam lever (3).

(Fig. D)
In most cases the setting is 0 on the scale.
In cases of a deformed forearm, the setting
may have to be changed.
• Open the locking screw (7) and perform
the adjustment.
• Tighten the locking screw (7).
Checking the setup, fine

Please check the following before using the
CPM device on a patient:
• Check settings 2 to 5 and make sure that
