Intended purpose
3.1
weight block
The weight pin is secured against falling out by appropriate mechanism (magnet or mechanical fixation).
For this it is necessary that the weight pin is always inserted completely. Only original weight pins from
proxomed may be used!

compass® MTT S1 med. explosive Rope pull wall, Art. 10120100
The compass® S1 cable column provides a wide range of training options for neuromuscular training
within the medical training therapy (MTT).
This device can be used to train the most varied muscle groups of the upper or lower extremities as well
as the stabilizing trunk muscles at different levels of movement. This makes it possible to train functional
movement patterns in the muscle chains from variable starting positions. The rope pulleys are used in
medical training therapy for shoulder, hip, knee and ankle joint rehabilitation as well as for stabilization
in spinal damage and injuries. In addition, a large number of coordination training exercises can be
carried out on wire rope pulleys. A special deflection process using six rollers prevents the weight plates
from accelerating themselves during training. The resulting friction is minimized by the long rope path
and the low up and down movement of the weights. Depending on the patient's level of performance
and rehabilitation phase, this enables exercises with slow, controlled movement control as well as fast-
acting functional and technical training.
The optionally available training benches of the compass® series are particularly suitable for training in
a seated position.
Specific patient positioning
The positioning of the patient depends on the planned movement to be performed. The starting position
for the exercise can be in a standing, sitting or lying position, with the person being trained in the
respective positions facing the machine or to the side. Depending on the type of movement, the height
of the handles or foot straps attached to the carabiners on the front holding bar or other adapters can
be adapted.
It is possible to choose a low position, for example for lower limb exercises, and a high position, for
example for upper limb exercises. To adjust the clamping screw, loosen the locking bolt on the guide
rail handle and move the roller to the desired position. Then clamp again or let it snap into place. The
movable rope roll holders automatically adapt to the movement sequence.
It can be trained on one or both sides. Depending on the training goal, you can train in the abdominal,
supine, lateral, sitting or standing position.
Attention: The weights on the weight stack must always be inserted in
the unloaded state. Additional weights may not be applied unless
authorized by proxomed.
