7.     Place the affected   Arm onto the  Arm Cradle, work the 
fingers around Hand Grip, then pull remaining flap of neoprene 
strap back over the hand and attach it to the exposed velcro   at 
the wrist (Fig # 4 ).   This Strap will prevent the hand from 
slipping off   the Hand Grip.     The affected hand may need 
some assistance in holding on to the   Hand   Grip while   
attaching the final strap.   Secure Arm to Arm Cradle   by Pulling 
Arm Straps over wrist and attach on other side, Fig. #5.

8.   Please refer to Understanding the Controller (P.2) to 
become familiar with the Controller before you start using the 
machine. 

9. If you wish more extreme wrist movement, place the 
provided bean bag in front of or behind the wrist.     This of 
course is a more advanced movement once the muscles and 
tendons have become   flexible, Fig. #6 & #7.
