FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
For best therapeutic results considering different pathologies
and to extend the useful life of the product, it is essential to
choose the correct size for each patient or user. Excessive
compression may be intolerable; adjusting the compression
to be firm yet comfortable is recommended.
If the product must be adapted, any such adjustments must
be done by an orthopaedic specialist or healthcare profes-
sional legally certified to do so who must make sure the end
user or person responsible for fitting the product properly
understands how it works and should be used.
When fitting the product, you must adhere to the
following instructions:
A Positioning palmar splint M760/660:
The malleable aluminium palmar splint enables you to
vary palmar/dorsal wrist flexion.
1-Loosen the fastening straps to open the aperture as
wide as possible.
2-Insert your hand and slide your thumb through the
thumb opening (ambidextrous).
3-Tighten the arm strap and fasten with the hook.
4-Place the wrist strap in the desired position and then
tighten the double strap to achieve the required com-
pression of the wrist and hand.
5-Finally, close the two palmar straps, adjusting for ten-
sion and direction.
B Positioning universal thumb attachment M760P/
M660P:
1-Release both Velcro fastening straps on the wrist sup-
port brace to enable the hand and thumb to be insert-
ed. Then, close the lower strap, but not very tightly.
Next, fit the thumb splint attachment to the brace and
hold in place with the upper strap. Finally, tighten both
the upper strap over the thumb attachment and the
lower strap as appropriate.
2-The thumb splint is made from malleable aluminium to
provide the desired abduction.
C Fitting the forearm extension accessory M760A:
1-Loosen the fastening straps to open up the wrist brace
as much as possible. Loosen the accessory fastening
strap.
2-With the grey side of the fabric upwards on the two pie-
ces, insert the part of the splint that sticks out of the
accessory into the wrist brace groove below the splint
on the wrist brace so the two splints match up. Rotate
the garment and close the micro-hook on the accessory
and over the wrist brace velour, pulling tight so it stays
in place.
3-Insert the hand with the thumb in the corresponding
opening (ambidextrous).
4-Adjust the forearm strap on the wrist brace and secure
with the micro-hook. Move the wrist strap to the desi-
red position and tighten the double strap for the desi-
red pressure on the wrist and hand.
5-Close the 2 palm straps; the tension and direction can
be changed.
6-Finally, adjust the accessory strap and secure with the
micro-hook for complete stabilisation.
