2.2 Combination possibilities

This product is to be combined exclusively with components in the Axon-Bus prosthetic system.
Components of the Ottobock MyoBock system or components from other manufacturers cannot
be used with this product.
Lateral Power Grip
The thumb moves laterally to the index finger; this laterally fixates medium-
sized objects when the thumb is in the half-open position.
Lateral Pinch
The thumb moves laterally to the index finger; this laterally fixates flat objects
when the thumb is in the closed position.
Open Palm
In the open palm position, the thumb is positioned all the way out; this
allows for a flat hand position with a completely opened thumb position.
The degree of mobility for internal and external rotation of the forearm
depends on the length of the residual limb. A compensatory movement from
the upper arm may be required in order to hold a flat object in a horizontal
position.
INFORMATION: The starting position of the rotation setting can be
adjusted within a range of ± 15 ° (see Page 21, see fig. 8).
Opposition Power Grip
The opening width makes it possible to hold cylindrical objects with large
diameters and with an open thumb position.
Tripod Pinch
Together with the index finger and the middle finger, the thumb forms a
three-point support; small objects can then be securely fixated with the
thumb in closed position.
Finger Abduction/Adduction
By spreading the fingers, a flat, thin object (< 3 mm / < 0.12 inch) can be
held between the fingertips when closing the hand.
