Arm Anchors
To prevent falls and
resulting injury, do not
use Rifton Anchors as a primary support
or as a standing support. Suction cups
may release.
To prevent falls and cuts, do not use
Rifton Anchors on thin glass.
Recommended use
The arm Anchor is intended to stabilize
one arm on a table or tray, or as a pair to
stabilize both arms. Providing increased
stability to the forearm, arm Anchors may
be benefi cial for head and trunk control to
allow functional use of the free arm.
Adjustment
Arm and wrist straps can be adjusted and
secured with hook-and-loop fasteners.
Move handhold backward and forward or
rotate by loosening the knob.
Operation
On a clean smooth table or tray, press
down on suction cup, and lower lever.
Place arm on arm Anchor pad and secure
it with arm and wrist straps. If suction
cup does not hold well, wipe with a damp
cloth or apply a thin layer of petroleum
jelly around the rim of the rubber pad to
enhance the vacuum.
