Installation
LITE TOUCH BIOMECHANICAL HANDS may be installed in any Fillauer TRS Omega
Wrist, or Fillauer LLC wrist units with a ½-20 thread. NOTE: Use with Economy Friction
Wrists is not recommended. Follow the instructions provided with the wrist unit for
best results.
Cabling
The pivoting "thumb" has been designed with a receiver for a 3/16" terminal ball. A
Binary Swivel, or triple swivel with a 3/16" terminal ball should be selected with a cable
connection that matches the cable used in the prosthesis. Cable routing should assure
a direct line of pull that minimizes bends in the cable which could result in excess cable
friction or failure .
