→ Careful handling of the Axon-Bus prosthethic system and the Axon-Bus components not only
increases their service life, but is primarily in the interest of your own safety.
→ If the Axon-Bus prosthethic system and the Axon-Bus components have been subjected to
extreme loads (e.g., through a fall or similar occurrence), the Axon-Bus prosthethic system
must be inspected by a prosthetist immediately for possible damage. The contact person for
this is the responsible prosthetist, who will send the Axon-Bus prosthethic system to
Ottobock Service if necessary.
CAUTION
Wearing in extreme ambient temperatures
►
Injury due to faulty control or malfunction of the Axon-Bus prosthethic system.
→ Avoid wearing the prosthesis in areas with temperatures outside of the permissible range.
See the section "Technical Data".
CAUTION
Penetration of dirt and humidity
►
Injury due to faulty control or malfunction of the Axon-Bus prosthethic system.
→ Ensure that neither solid particles nor liquids can penetrate inside the Axon-Bus prosthethic
system or Axon-Bus components.

6 Preparation for Use
6.1 Assembly on the Socket
Fabricating a socket with integrated lamination ring is a prerequisite for installation.
To fabricate the socket, please read through the 646T3=3.4 Technical Information 'Fabrication of
a Transradial Prosthesis with a Michelangelo Hand'.
1) Connect the receptacle and plug of the Axon-Bus cable (see fig. 1).
2) Mount the oval plate of the AxonRotation Adapter on the integrated lamination ring (see fig. 2).
3) Screw together the oval plate and lamination ring with 4 M3x8 Torx screws (see fig. 3). Tight
en the screws hand-tight and do not use a thread lock such as Loctite.
7 Handling
7.1 Disconnecting the AxonRotation Adapter from the Axon-Bus flexion component
When the unlock mechanism is activated the Axon-Bus flexion component, e.g. the AxonFlexion
Adapter 9S500=*, can be disconnected from the AxonRotation Adapter 9S501. The AxonRotation
Adapter 9S501 remains on the socket.
The Axon-Bus contacts are separated during detachment and automatically reconnected when
the components are reattached.
